If you look at the first ep and the very first season, you will see why uncle Phil was harder on Will

The question is why was he so much harder on Will?

The reason is because he SAW so much potential in Will, much more than any of his kids. There are many references to this, including the episode when Will plays "Fur Elise", the episode with the tenet suing Phil when Phil says "You give me the most grief, but you are one I am not worried about", and especially the last episode. Phillip was the hardest on Will because he expects the most out of him. He knew that if he kept Will's head on his shoulders straight, he will turn out fine. This is why I love this show, it got so much depth after the first season.

i thought it was unfair that will got grounded for playing some barely audible music, as granny danced in the 'young & restless' episode from series 1.

it was hilarious when they snuck out though, haha

The main reason for it is that he wanted to give Will some structure and discipline, both of which he would need in the adult world. But he did go overboard in some episodes.
