[OOC - It is more my fault then anything. I have been trying to slowly dole out pieces of my created 'fanon' but perhaps I have not been detailed enough?
The timelines are not precisely equal. There is a five year difference between where Pike has come from and where he is now; it is the year 2263 in his universe, and Spock is 31 years old.
There are, I believe, two mirror verses, one for each (TOS! and nu!). Due to the mirror!verses faster gains in technology then the original verse it matches (comparing Mirror, Mirror/In a Mirror Darkly versus their respective counterpart universes), things have happened sooner then they did in the nu!Verse.
But TOS!Kirk is not irrelevant, because he is bonded to Spock. I attempted to allude to that, perhaps too subtly, that Pike recognizes that fact and knows he must tread lightly or fear having one of Spock's bond-mates interfere. ]
