The file you attached has two movements! The second has 13 bars of the
first movement.

Is this a repeatable problem? I tried deleting the second movement and
then using Movement->"Duplicate or Merge"->Duplicate and it duplicated

Yes, mirrored music is just a reference to some music in a specific
staff, when you duplicate the movement you copy the reference which
persists in referring to music in the staff in the previous movement.

The thing to do is to delete the mirrored staffs in the duplicate
movement and re-create them as references to the second movement's
staffs (unless you want to have them mirror the original music). I
think you could, on the other hand, make all the staffs in the second
movement be mirrors of the non-mirrored ones in the first movement,
which would be neater.
