Very simple, just state your assumptions and you can be covered in both answers. A vaguely written question requires you to state your assumptions.How do you compromise on a true-false question?
The possibility of compromise suggests that there is common ground to begin with. That suggests that both parties have agreed that it is indeed a true/false question, and not a multi-varying answer. If both parties have agreed that far, then they've compromised far enough intellectually, and the rest is up to mutual understanding. Absolute intellectual agreement isn't necessary between parties that agree on the nature of the question. If they don't agree on that...well then, therein lies great evil.How do you compromise on a true-false question?
You agree to disagree.
You can't.
stall for time
If there are only two possible outcomes, which is unlikely, then there are only two possible outcomes. Compromise comes with accepting objective truth, but moreover I find it's more important to be loving and understanding than to be right.
common sense
I think you need to give an example. True and false are really only perceptions and interpretations. What I believe is true may be what you believe is false. Nothing is usually that set in concrete that there is only one interpretation.
Well if we are talk (2+2=4 true or false) then compromise is not an option, it is a universal truth. However if you add just one Item then compromise is possible (2 apples + 2 Oranges = 4 fruit true or false) one could argue either way, true you have 4 fruit however one could also argue false you have 2 apples and 2 oranges. In math only like items can be combined. hence you are both right you must compromise that there is more than one answer.
It depends on situation, if i don't care about the aftermath, i answer as i count right, but if i do, consequences must be satisfying for me. Yes, it seems boring, but works for us all
I choose neither.
You don't, there is no compromise, on or about anything. Its either one or the other. People that think there is or actually try to attempt it are just lost souls grasping at staws.
What is the question that you imply has only two answers? Some questions we perceive, initially, as being either/or type questions, turn out to be questions with many variables.
Take the US federal elections, for example. The media encourages Americans to believe there are only two real options. Why is not important; yet, the fact that this is not true, however, is. There are scores of political parties who never are allowed to reach the general public's awareness, but, they are still there, regardless of public perception.
Also, there are times when details change the answer from yes/no or true/false to a little bit of the one, and some of the other. Like when a lawyer attempts to bully a witness into giving a yes-or-no-only answer, when the witness has pledged an oath to tell the whole truth, and simply saying yes or no would break that oath.
