As I read the discussion, I boil this all down to a sense of honor similar to what MysicCat81 has said above.

Think for a moment about wedding ceremonies. At most all weddings, the bride and groom take a vow in front of everyone to be faithful to one another only. Yet, look at how many people go on to committ adultery. It's as if they saw the wedding and their vows as "just a tradition" or "just a formality".

My opinion? An oath is an oath. It should be kept unless a person is released from it.
