...for the sole and express purpose of revising the Articles of Confederation,..." and they went FAR beyond that charter as EVERY member of the New York delegation promptly recognized and all save Hamilton left and took no further part in the proceedings!
What they did, without authorization and in total disregard for the instructions given by the government under the Articles of Confederation, was write an entirely NEW Constitution under which all seceded from that "perpetual" union in favor of a new one! So much for "perpetual" government in America!
Your arguments are indeed ridiculous!
No doubt they went beyond what Congress had expected, but based in the legislation authorizing the convention they certainly followed what the states had unanimously agreed to.
