After bottling more than 5,000 bottles of beer, personal experience has led me to the conclusion that although technically there may be some viable yeast still in the beer after fining and crashing, in most cases there isn't enough to reliably carbonate the beer in anything like a timely manner - if at all. I always inoculate my priming spiese with a small amount [~1 to 2 oz.] of harvested yeast, and won't bottle anymore until I've verified that fermentation is active. That works reliably for almost all beers, the exception being really high gravity/ABV barrel aged beers, which are a nut I've yet to crack.
