Clearly there is an element of that, but Elizabeth has never wanted him in the way that Martha does. Even the reproductive sex he had with Elizabeth was work sex, and I wonder if the oral sex earlier in the series was done for Paige's benefit rather than her walking in on them genuinely doing it.
You mean the oral sex was chosen by the producers to tone down what Paige saw?
I think they've kind of gone on record as saying that particular position was to indicate a sort of trust and equality--but for Paige was was probably worse than just sex because she clearly got what was going on there!
In terms of them being together, I'd also add the time they spent in the hotel room in In Control. I think the idea is that Elizabeth has openly wanted him in the way that Martha does since the pilot. Philip just doesn't approach with the same tone.
