Write AMBULANCE on a piece of paper. Now turn the paper around so the word faces away from you. Hold it up to a light and you can see that the word is now flipped horizontally. Now face a mirror: the image is projected onto the mirror with no change, so you see the exact same thing you saw when it held it up the light.
IOW the mirror is inessential. We can ask the same question about just a transparent piece of paper.
