a "photon" is just a heuriostical device,
to pile the energy of the wave into a "point,"
the place at which the wave-energy is absorbed
(by the rods/cones of the eye, or a detectorf).

hpwever, Young, Huyghens, Fermat et al showed that
all of the important properties are not Newtonian (or
corpuscular).

A photon is described as a quantum of energy. It is better described
as a quantum of aether.

ridiculous; "the aether" is what ever the wave is spreading trhough;
htat's teh only question.

thus:
your (The AP's) statement about how Fermat might
have defined finity & infinity may actually hover
near the heart of the matter of his actual,
eventual proof, excluding the very special case of n=4,
where he actually defined "infinite descent.: so,
how does Fermat's version of infinity gybe with yours?... do you
believe that he -- who reconstructed Eulclid's porisms,
in the "geometric fragments," below -- did not agree
with the infinity of the primes?

thus:
in deed, "i.f.f." is just shorthand for N&S. can not one see,
easily, that The AP has cpntinuously morphed his proofs,
in such a form that he always has N&S, as far as he (and
possible instances of "other personalities") is cons=cerned?...
then, he tries to communicate them,
where it mostly seems to fall-flat into the mud.

all that "iff" truly entails is the Trivium,
logic/grammer/rhetoric, or just the first two of those,
as far as mere Reading Dynamics goes (in other words,
pubescent linguacy .-)

A light wave is a wave in the aether. If a light wave is traveling
though water, it is propagating through the aether in the water.

photon hath no restmass, precisely because
it is not a coorpuscle -- it am what it am,
"least action in least time" a la Fermat!

the photon is just a figment of Einstein's photo-electrical effect.
