I think the theory is suggesting that the photon was emitted with less energy.

I think the question is that if the current accepted theory for the redshift is correct, then where has the energy gone?

Would the star then appear to be a different color to "someone" its own solar system than it does us? Does OUR star thus appear to be moving TOWARD them since it's "our" color vs what "they" would consider to be the correct color for a star our size?

Doesn’t this require the photon to be emitted differently depending on where it ends up, as it would experience different amounts of redshift depending on the length of flight?

That’s some serious retro-causality if a photon from 13B ly hits us instead of Andromeda.
