#1. Wikipedia says that either: two single high frequency photons or
two high temperature/intensity photon beams (therefore a mutlitude of
photons) can collide together and produce an electron/

#2. The electron and positron can also annihilate each other there is
only one (feynman diagram at Wikipedia) or two photons
created....correct?

#3. Therefore we can conclude that a multitude of photons (#1 above)
can transform and only become one or two single photons(#2
above).....correct, if not why not???
(#3 must be an important quantum principal/behavior where a mulitude
of photons become only two photons....yet the only reply was Tom
Roberts saying it's foolish?)
Your error is failure to grasp what is meant by a pseudo-particle
or a virtual particle and total ignorace of the classical paths that
are a part of QED.
<<Now, does not the prize to Einstein imply
that the Academy recognised the particle
nature of light? The Nobel Committee says
that Einstein had found that the energy exchange
between matter and ether occurs by atoms emitting
or absorbing a quantum of energy,hv .
As a consequence of the new concept of light quanta
(in modern terminology photons) Einstein proposed the
law that an electron emitted from a substance by
monochromatic light with the frequency has to have
a maximum energy of E=hv-p, where p is the energy needed to
remove the electron from the substance. Robert Andrews
Millikan carried out a series of measurements over a
period of 10 years, finally confirming the validity of this
law in 1916 with great accuracy. Millikan had, however,
found the idea of light quanta to be unfamiliar and strange.
The Nobel Committee avoids committing itself to the
particle concept. Light-quanta or with modern terminology,
photons, were explicitly mentioned in the reports on
which the prize decision rested only in connection with
emission and absorption processes. The Committee says
that the most important application of Einstein's photoelectric
law and also its most convincing confirmation has come from
the use Bohr made of it in his theory of atoms, which explains
a vast amount of spectroscopic data. >>

You have to consider psuedo-particles as mathematical modules
that don't necessarily operate the same way nature does, but
they arrive at the same result for some limited situations.
Specifically
countable events that yield to statistical analysis.
