Limitations of semitransparents mirror in EPR gedankenexperiment

In EPR gedankenexperiment the first object that destroys the coherence of photons is the semitransparent mirror.

In particular the non infinite mass of mirror induces a frecuency-energy doppler shift in the reflected photon.

 

¿Do you think that it worth to model such effect and incorporate to the gedankenexperiment or it would be only noise?

Gedanken experiments generally use ideal systems. If you were to try and do a real experiment you would have to start modeling effects that are large enough to measure and affect the results.
