Mirror image is better than self sustained fork
The reason is simple - costs. Self sustained forks demand a lot of development time, if you want to build a well maintained cryptocurrency.
If the network grows, the required development time is likely to grow too.
A simpler, and less costly way to maintain a network with high reliability is to create a self mutating copy of it.
Mutating copy is a simple copy of the original source, mutating every time the original source mutates.
