I did a horrifying experiment in uni with a mirror on the wall, and asked people to point at where they thought they could see their reflection . The obvious answer is of course “when you’re next to it”. A terrifyingly large number of people at a University assumed they could see themselves at a 45 to 60 degree angle, so several step before they actually reached the mirror.
Some of them were even shocked when they walked along it.
Its a basic physics thing. You see not more of your body when you take a step back. That is normal and expected.
People just don’t understand mirrors.
