Have to say, I agree with this very harsh assessment. Elizabeth's feelings towards Philip seem to have reverted to her season 1 feelings but with more contempt thrown in.
In a way, she brought it on herself by agreeing to go it alone so he could stop spying - which, ironically, was a decision she made surely because she loved him.
On the other hand, Philip has also brought it on them by dropping out the way he did and leaving her to do all these terrible things and carry the burden of them (which I think she's only subconsciously aware of) by herself.
But if he hadn't dropped out, it would have destroyed him.

Either way, they both lose.
