But as soon as the vertices are within Merge Distance they are snapped together and cannot be moved beyond the mirror plane. Vertices on the mirror plane will be unable to move away from the mirror plane as long as Clipping is enabled.

What happens when you disable clipping in Blender?

Vertices on the mirror plane will be unable to move away from the mirror plane as long as Clipping is enabled. You must disable it to be able to move the vertices along the mirror axis again. Where a vertex is in the same place (within the Merge Distance) as its mirror it will be merged with the mirrored vertex.
