No.

You guys watched. You know what I did, yesterday? When you were surrounded by like 30 people, the whole world was against you? I walked in. I was willing to fight all of them for you Tommy. I would’ve been there.

That is the difference between us.”

I think it's weak because they dont need Ranboo to further their military power. Techno can sponsor a war all by himself. He might have Ranboo fight along side him, but Phil and Techno dont need to bother with deception, maybe a lil omission of truth will happen however up until now their end game has always been clear.

I feel like their characters are being misinterpreted. They've laid out their moral codes clearly and they've been fairly consistent (more consistent than most if Im being honest) so I find it a lil crazy to expect a manipulation arc like dream when they have nothing to actually gain from it.

Lastly, this whole Philza is a horrible dad to Tommy. Tommy and Phil have yet to clear up their actual dynamic. Phil has never addressed him as son and Tommy has never called him father. At most he admires him, they've barely role played together, even then Phil was one of the few people who visited and gave him gifts. Keep the headcanon family dynamic out of Phil's character analysis. Tommy is barely part of his arc and until the plot addresses Tommy's stance on Phil, the supposed neglect he has suffered from a figurative father figure should be put on hold. Phil is so much more than just the dad character, and these "he left tommy for ranboo" theories are based on a headcanon for now. Please look at him as he is in the established lore and keep headcanon as headcanon. He is super neat and I like his weathered soldier shtick he has going on.
