Is the Case for Photons as Conductors of Electrical Energy Valid?

[PRodQuanta]

What do you make of this, now that the theory has some math... Just seeing what you think.

The case for photons as the conductors of electrical energy is as follows :- The drift velocity of electrons in a conductor with a 100V and 1 amp is .4mm which is approx 300 billion times less than c. The distance between electrons in a conductor is like having a circle with a 6km radius , the flow of electrons is like a billiard ball placed at the centre ,trying to hit a billiard ball placed on the perimeter of this circle. Is it possible ?

That would be a case AGAINST electrons, not FOR photons (if it were an accurate description of what is going on, which it is not). A theory must be able to stand on its own.

In any case, ProdQuanta, all I read was this:

"Aumic" wave theory or New Field theory holds that the universe is saturated with such virtual photons [Note ]which are exactly similar to real photons in structure but whose energy is minimal , these virtual photons are moving in random directions , however as soon as a real photon appears they align themselves (rather in the manner of electrons in a wire conducting a current ) in the direction of propagation of the photon forming a line whose ends rest on infinity.

Sounds like an aether theory to me.
