What’s vague? Let me try to spell this out in excruciating detail:
Making good on one’s commitments promotes the virtue of integrity. Integrity is constitutive of good character. One cannot consistently act as a person of good character without having it. To act ethically is to act as a person of good character does. Ethics specifies what one has most reason to do or want.
So, if you ask me what I have most reason to do in a circumstance where I’ve made a commitment, ceteris paribus, I’ll respond that I’ll make good on my commitments.
Too vague.
