Also, it doesn't really matter where you are when you set your mirrors, since you always set them using your vehicle as a spatial reference.

Yes that is true, adjusting the mirrors before you go. I do that if they are out of whack. But doing this you can only roughly set them so you can see the back corner of the car. Anything else, like setting them further out to tune out the blind spots, requires you to be out on the road.
