Currently, you cannot cancel a mirror job without the @force flag set. This is intentional once source and target are in sync, but probably not so much before that happens. The main reason for me thinking this is because it is an undocumented change in 2.12.0 in respect to 2.11.
(b76e4458b1eb3c32e9824fe6aa51f67d2b251748 only notes a behavior change after READY, but not before.) This series depends on Stefan’s patch “block/mirror: honor ratelimit again” (which is in Jeff’s queue).
