There's nothing that can compete with #30 wire and a matching soldering iron tip. Even a quick and dirty solder joint is mechanically and electrically better than any practical pressure contact. And with wire, you can make twisted pairs for signal integrity.

Yes.

If you just have to make a temporary connection, and the signal integrity
is OK with macro sized things, gold pointy pogo pins are a way.

You can buy off ebay.  I'll mail you a couple.

After that, it's "IC probe card" development time...
