Yep, Maxwell equations do produce the same results. The fun quantum thing is that this also happens with individual photons.
What about if one path length is longer than the other, by either more than one light-beam length, or, in the case of an individual photon, more than one light-photon length? I'm assuming that matching two different paths to that level of precision is improbable even intentionally.
Can a beam of light or a single photon interact with itself non-locally? What if the alternate path has a different detector intermittently intercepting it?
