   This doesn't even get close to the issue, since any paradoxes are seen   
   in the measured outcomes, not the photons themselves.   
      
   That said, these "delayed choice" experiments come down sorting photons   
   into groups. The choice is made during the experiment. If the choice is   
   not to sort them in a way that allows an interference pattern to be   
   discovered in each group, then interference patterns are not discovered.
