Close enough, sure. Ask a different question, get a different answer.
You know photons aren't unique, in that? They're not an outlier. Other elementary particles, atoms, even molecules exhibit wave particle duality.
As to your difficulty in making sense of something having the properties of both simultaneously, are you familiar with Bohmian mechanics? It's one example of a set of quantum theories that either have no trouble resolving the apparent paradox..or simply do not see or describe any such paradox at all. I don't mention it to take a side, or to declare one interpretation the right interpretation, only to bring to your attention that others have made sense of what does not make sense to you, right or wrong.
