Considering the wavelength of light, I doubt very much that you can
setup a rig with mirrors where the A-B-D path is *exactly* the same
length as the A-C-D path, down to a point where you may need to consider
coriolis effect due to rotation of the earth. So when you wonder about
interference being created, you need to first look at yourvery crude
equipment such as the wave splitter and mirrors and the requireement
that they be absolutely precicely positioned. Also, when going through
the wave splitter, you'd need to ensure that the path FAC and FAB would
go through the exact same amount of material in the splitter. (down to
atomic level), and have exactly the same amount of refraction etc etc.

Re: predicting whether a photon at A will turn right or go straigth:

Just because it appears random to us and you can't really predict it
doesn't mean there isn't a logic to it. If the photon hits a reflective
atom at A, he will turn right towards C. If it passes between 2
reflective atoms, it will continue straight towards B.

We may not have any equipment to see/measure this, but there is still
some logic behind it, it isn't all "random".
