The Midrash Shmuel explains כל מחלוקת לשם שמים סופו להתקיים all arguments for a Divine purpose will eventually stand. Who wants an argument to stand? The Beis Hilel because of their humility wanted to her the Beis Shamai’s view first to see an opposite view in order not to stumble by having tunnel vision. Thereby the Beis Shamai also became praise worthy as they helped the Beis Hillel to arrive to the truth. Leosid Lova we will pasken like the Beis Shamai as currently we don’t understand their stringent views but then we will gain a new understanding and the majority will follow them.
