No its him paying penance for his role in Hev's death because he felt guilty and probably wanted to give Shirley some relief, he doesn't owe Shirley anything his not above hurting people to get what he wants, he's done it before, I think if you knew Phil's true history on the show and not just the one you've created round Phil and Shirley then you would hopefully understand better.
He slept with his brother wife, he slept with Mel, Lisa's best friend, he cheated on Kathy and slept with Glenda behind Shirley's back, theses are just some examples that I can think of, he wouldn't care how Shirley felt even if was her sister, she isn't eliminated just cause it would hurt her feelings and I don't see how this is bad news for Ben, his out of the picture for now.
