Well, this one is stochastic and they used their setup once with and once without gate, which reduces the time between consecutive photon detections by roughly 10. This cuts it for me. You will always say that the time delay chosen in any experiment does not match your conditions. If they wait a week you can tell them to wait a year. This is pointless.
I have already given you a paper in which fringe visibility vanished when the time between photons was varied. This should not happen if self-interference is at play.

You will also remember, that in the famous Tonomura et al paper with electrons, fringe visibility faded when emission intensity was dropped.
