The thing that having a palantir does for you is that you can be aware that somebody else is looking at you just as you are and can communicate telepathally. You couldn't do this with the mirror, no - but I'm sure that G&L could figure out how to communicate somehow. They know when they're looking at each-other!
Once a paleontologist, now a botanist, will be a paleobotanist
