Not sure how relevant.
It is relevant because the 2nd postulate of relativity doesn't hold in the photon's reference frame. The photon's velocity is 0 in its frame when relativity requires it to always be c.

Nevertheless, lets ignore this issue for the progress of your argument. If I say the photon's reference frame is valid, and it experiences no time and no distance traveled, where does this lead?
