Intrinsic to my postulations about light speed, tessellation, and self assembly is the idea that light has two speeds – a slow speed (C), and a very fast speed (nearly instantaneous).
There are two “speeds of light.” One is the tessellation speed of the medium’s crystallographically defined self assembly. The other is the light momentum’s speed associated with the “modulus of elasticity” for the medium. Of course the assembly of the tessellating structure is slow by comparison to the travel of light over a built path. So, the slow speed of light is the tessellation speed.
The built path is not maintained for the large transverse wave. Hence, there is no return of signal for the large transverse waves. By large, I mean the traditionally measured wavelengths such as 532 nanometers for green. However; the center of tessellation is capable of receiving the reflexive light from a connected photon. This means that for the center of tessellation, the speed of light is almost instantaneous.
The speed of tesselation is slow and is what governs the traditional constant for the speed of light. The modulus of elasticity for the built path is cause for the “fast” speed of light, which is nearly instantaneous on a built path.
The equalizer for the traditional speed of light being constant is the tessellation speed. So, light is bi-speed. Two speed light explains the strong and weak forces. The elasticity of the longer lasting built path of tessellation is stronger than the unmaintained elasticity of the medium in general. So, the strong force is elasticity built from entanglement force.
By the way, the weaker elasticity of the general medium is an explanation for gravity. Gravity does not shape time space. It shapes the medium, and that medium’s elasticity becomes the force.

Yet another clarification needs to be made. The "built path" for light, through a self assembling lyotropic medium, exists for only so long as its tendency to dissolve. It has latency. The tendency of its lyotropic nature for dissolution is quite quick, and is why the large transverse path dissolves immediately while the center of tessellation can remain an open waveguide (due to the instantaneous "refresh" of its tessellated wave form).
The oscillation of the photon energy is confined to two waveguides, which themselves have "bifringent" properties. Thus, what we might interpret as the "amplitude" of the energy in the outer waveguide is simply the geometry of distance, and is large, while that geometry is much smaller in the inner waveguide. Thus, the terminology of "tiny waves" associated with both full-on reflexive entangled quantum connections, and what I call "half cycle" quantum connections, the latter not being "entangled" - but still use exactly the same mechanism for information exchange.
This two factor mechanism is why it requires bifringent material with hexagonal crystallography to initiate quantum connections. It's two waves at once, with the inner one confined to quantum-sized geometric spaces (undetectable in Einstein's day, which is why he couldn't find them). The tessellation of a lyotropic medium that is bifringent, and possessing of a hexagonal crystallography, easily creates bimodal or trimodal mechanisms for light transmission, due to it's capacity for nested waveguides.
The tendency is to call the inner energy transfer a "wave" but it is not exactly such a thing, as the almost instantaneous speed that light possesses on a pre-existing path makes that transfer more of a singular pulse of energy with angular momentum, as in a wilberforce pendulum.
