Question

why did tom feel that philip was not a spiteful fellow after all

Answer 1

Thank you for asking this question.

Tom was stun to Philip's feeling of consistency. In spite of the fact that he can't see that Philip distortion was neither planned nor inherited. Tom is compelled towards Philip's predominance in many ways and the fact that Philip love his father was not less than a stun for Tom's biases.
Any way, Tom don't want to become just like Philip because their abilities like athletic and courage was quite different from each other.
Hope this will help you.
