Default Static universe

I did read DC's paper a couple of years ago as it has been publically
available, and unlike the journals I am interested in static models of
the universe. However, I did not like the model of light presented in
the paper, as it holds that photons can interact non-destructively in
their flight paths. To me it is clear that photons can't interact
with anything between emission and registration, and that their flight
paths (so to speak) follow null geodesics which are just straight
lines through a gravity-contoured manifold. So a registered photon is
always a perfect archive of its emitted state, although doppler-like
effects happen at registration, of course. Since the model of light
was wrong, the static model was wrong, was my take.
