you keep bringing up general definitions of words but your sources never have any thing to say about your magical theory of photons disappearing into oblivion without the need to interact with matter.
It has been explained to you over and over. The problem is that you lack the foundational knowledge required to understand and grasp the explanations you have been given.
As do definitions, I give specific definitions, not general ones. A photon is described by every scientific dictionary I can find as the quantum of electromagnetic radiation meaning the smallest possible mearuable bit of radiation in an EM field. Now, are you going to tell me that EM fields must interact with matter in order to be diminished?
You have a terribly mistaken notion of what a photon is and till you get that straight in your head, you won't be able to grasp what happens when EM fields interact as evidenced by your continued misunderstanding.
