Ok fine /science What’s the best argument for why light is a particle? Note: not why light emission and absorption is quantized, that is different I already believe it

Somewhat of a trick question that invokes the times when it was believed light should be either particle or wave, and we know both models fall short to what light really is. But if asked to argue in favor of particle-ness: Energy changes during Compton scattering shouldn't happen if light were merely a wave.
