I have multi-sectioned Word documents set to 'mirror margins'. When pages are printed back-to-back, the pages are not exactly mirrored but are out by 3mm. Testing shows this is not due to paper feed drift but is inherent in the document. A mismatch like this is unacceptable for commercial printing.

From my perusal of web forums, it looks as though there has been various problems with the 'mirror margins' setting extending to as far back as 1998 and which are still present in the latest version of Word. It may be Microsoft has never got this setting to ever work correctly. However, I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has come up against this problem and found a work around for it.
