Often wondered why anyone would want mirroring? But obviously the option is
there for a reason. What could be such a reason?

To see the same stuff at different resolutions?

To sell a monitor ("look how much better THIS for-sale one is than this
crummy old thing which I am forced to keep because I have a wife and 9 kids
who are starving and need urgent feeding")?

So that someone else in a different direction (eg. a parent) can keep a
check on what a person is doing...?

So that when you see something you really can barely believe possible, all
doubts are removed by seeing a confirmation on another screen?

Your eyes have a condition, the left can see some things at one angle but
not other things, the right some kind of complimentary problem - having the
2 screens makes for a complete view?

To try to get a sort of stereo effect by somehow setting the two monitors
slightly different?

So that when you see something really nice, you want to see more and the
only possible more on offer is double?

As a redundancy to safeguard losing an image during some critical work if
one monitor goes down?
