Re: "You mention one aspect of the House version....'

ACTUALLY... what I mentioned was that there was a big dust-up between the House and the Senate, with each branch proposing different language.

(Presumably if they believed that there was 'no difference' between the different statements that they each came up with, and defended for months of loud debate... there there would have been NO NEED for the months of caterwauling! <GGG>)

And... I 'mentioned' that the Senate *refused* to accept the Houses' language, and --- in the end --- the House decided that they had to accept the Senate's language, else there might not have been an amendment at all. :-)

(But... since the language is all the same to you... and it makes no difference, all 'peas in a pod'... I guess you imagine that those Founders must have fought so bitterly for months on end because... what? They liked to hear the sound of their own voices?)
