Hello Q,
If a photon is a particle that orbits in a very small radius around its center while moving in a fixed direction (like an electron orbit), this width, the width and depth of the slits, and the actual direction of the spin (relative to its proximity to either side of the slit) would have to be taken into consideration in any experiment, conceptual, quantum or otherwise.
A clockwise orbiting photon would be blocked by the barrier while an anti clockwise orbit would deflect inside the slit (on the slits side) if they were both shot at the slit from the exact same location (i.e. within one radius length of rotation of the slits edge).
If your measuring equipment (or experiment) couldn't determine, or didn't consider the radius of rotation of the photon the result would appear uncertain. This is also consistent with the photon being a particle which produces a wave when you plot the forward motion of its orbit over time. (i.e. the particle is now (no orbit considered) and the wave is the orbiting particles path over time).
