When you have a complete move tree that is the case (so i now agree that the computer will always get the best result (win or draw depending on the game start configuration), given a complete tree). When you don't then that is not always true.
I was thinking about that, and i'm not sure that is true (i'm about 50-50 either way).
Even if you got the algorithm to explore the entire game tree (all levels, no time limit) its still working on the assumption that you will make the move that it would make in the same position (always...
That wouldn't work, since what you see in a mirror depends on the viewing angle (i.e. a fixed orientation camera wouldn't be right).
It would only work if you were looking straight at the mirror, otherwise the 'reflection' would look wrong since you'd still see an image in the mirror as if...
