I have been thinking in terms of a control mass system [...] Your
example is expressed in terms of a control volume system
You thought this left 0 mass inside the box because the only thing
in the box was a photon and it has zero mass.
What you didn't notice was that amount q of system mass was still
inside the box.
The locality of the conservation of anything is best expressed
(perhaps can only be expressed) in terms of a control volume system
so I want to go there.
