The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Put yourself in the place of one of the lawmakers in 1787. You are present to represent your state. In the end, you realize that you have experienced "the art of compromise ". I will describe to my neighbor the meaning of this compromise in the following way.

I would tell him that a compromise means that we have to honor the agreements reached during the Constitutional Convention. That we have to respect and honor what the delegates have signed and promoted in our territories and cities the new Constitution because that is what agreed upon.

Although we had differences and harsh debates during the convention, in the end, we reached an agreement and set our differences aside, we came up with the best document possible and it is our obligation to support it.
