The Mirror dragon bases does not act as an un-enhanced base card. It acts as a base card and utilizes the dragon cards enhancement. So a Spirit dragon used on an Orcus would be treated as a base orcus with 3333 Attk and 3333 Def. This can lead to some interesting results.

I made 2 Ilazki+ cards, one proper and one with a Mirror Dragon

The results were Card 1: Attk 7787, Def 10883

Card 2: Attk 7928, Def 10710

One card had Higher Def, one higher Attk. If the mirror acted as a base with no enhancement, there would be one card inferior in both attk and def.

I'm sure this could be used strategically to get a card with marginally improved stats in either Attk or Def at the cost of its other stat. I also imagine there are cases where a Mirror makes a card worse in both stats.
