If anything his honesty gets him in trouble more than anything, because he's honest about his vision of what he wants things to be like, even if that vision has nearly zero chance of actually happening in reality. :) Evasive? Sure sometimes. A liar? No I don't think so. Doubledown, I don’t see Philip as someone who lies very often.

You can be certain everything he said here (for the first time) is completely honest. There’s something cool about knowing that Philip HAD to tell the truth that day.
