"Say the quantum of light hits within an inch of the edge of the telescope."
If it doesn't hit the telescope then the question is moot.
"Since the quantum is already traveling at the SoL, wouldn't that mean that some aspect of it would have to be interacting with the whole area of the telescope faster than light?"
Yes, this is what I have been promoting for years now. Even though the overall travel time is c, there must be components that travel faster to make even the simplest picture of light work.
