Two normal light-waves "collide" in space and nothing happens. The very reason light has been classified among the "bosons"... right? "They can occupy the same locale simultaneously." We know that two electrons [with different quantum status (numbers)] can NOT be in the same place at the same time. That's why they are named "fermions."
So... How could anyone explained that after two light waves intercept no one proceeds with their original propagation leaving a busrt of energy instead?
Is this enough to answer your question?

I don't think it's enough to answer my question because it's incomplete. If I understood, you mean that after the light waves collide they could both continue to be there. Ok, you did proof that there are two types of lights, in that ase. But still, how would we proof that there are two different lightwaves in one, once they collide?
