*Do us all a favor and stop playing games. In the elapsed time of any quantum experiment, or even much, much longer, the expansion rate of the universe in the neighborhood of the lab is astronomically tiny and doesn't effect the energy of a photon to any measureable degree.

Bringing up the expansion rate of the universe when the discussion is about the behavior of a photon in quantum experiment is just plain dumb.
