So why exactly does a mirror need to run an OS in the first place?

From the comments looks like it was for advertising.

Could very much be advertising, but there are very nice smart mirror projects out there

Absolutely! Anyone interested in building their own smart mirror (or just smart display, like I have) should check out this open source project: https://magicmirror.builders/
