It depends what comes up, I suppose. If something comes up that underlies QM, then that would certainly define a new context for photons and probably everything else, as well, at least on that primitive level. Whether it would change whether we'd call my claim that there's a dragon around the corner "true," or the OP proposition, seems unlikely.
