There are a lot of theories over at fanfiction.net that Harry is inside the Mirror, seeing what he wants to see.
I considered this possibility back when we were searching for Harry’s solution, and found that Voldemort uses the same hand for wand and gun before and after the Mirror.
I thought: If they are in the Mirror, Eliezer would have subtly indicated that, perhaps Voldemort’s use of hands would be reversed since the Mirror.
Does this qualify as sufficient proof that Harry and Voldemort are not in the Mirror?
It’d be a clever tell if Eliezer wanted us to conclude they’re still in the Mirror, but I don’t think its absence is strong evidence of the opposite. The Mirror might not work that way, and Eliezer might simply have forgotten if it did.
(I would say it’d be clever if anyone walking into their dream-world died soon after of amino-acid chirality issues, but similar things have been done so many times that it’s not very creative. Plus it clashes with the theme.)
