Okay, somebody explain to me:

I understand that when Nathan was killed, Matt forced his soul into Sylar's body for safekeeping, and then ended up with Sylar's soul taking up space inside his own body. And I understand that Nathan sees himself when he looks into a mirror, and that because it's Nathan's soul, that's who we see - the actor that plays Nathan, not Zach Quinto who plays Sylar, because Nathan is the animating soul.

What I don't understand is - why does everyone else see Nathan? Why aren't Peter and Nathan's secretary reacting to Sylar standing in front of them, since it's Sylar's body? When Sylar takes over Matt's body, although we see Sylar, everyone else sees Matt, because it's Matt's body. But as Nathan is moving around and talking to people, they're seeing Nathan and not Sylar, even though it's Sylar's body. THIS MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE.

Is this as big a mistake as I keep thinking it is, or am I missing a piece of the puzzle here? Because IT'S DRIVING ME FUCKING NUTS.
