Change whatever is bothering you about photons (and
all other quantum objects) having both wave and
particle natures.

Not this bothers me about QM, but the collapse of
wave function: two entangled photons where the
detection of A determine the outcome of B: this, if
really happens,

It does. It does FTL... and near as we can measure,
instantaneously.

then there must be a hidden cause that links the
two since the generation of the two entangled
photons, the detection of one of the two should not
have effect on the other aside to show how the
entanglement has fixed the two from the begin.

I would submit the "hidden cause" is our forgetting the wave
nature of all quantum objects. Because we assume we have
"separated" the two objects, this bizarre behavior springs up.
Spacetime is only a problem for macroscopic systems... quantum
objects don't care for / about spacetime. "Separation" is just
us measuring ourselves again, beda.
