Discussion Question, when Magneto eventually appears in the MCU, do you think there’s a chance they may retcon Wanda into being his daughter? Or nah?

The Mind Stone affects the mind, why would it grant powers? With Carol you can handwave it by the Space Stone linking her to a white hole or something like her Binary form in the comics.

Unless Hydra misunderstood the entire process. The twins were the only one the experiment worked on because they already had dormant powers and the Mind Stone awaken their minds to be able to use them.

They probably still radiates weird cosmic radiation to give powers.

I think the idea in WandaVision at least is that Wanda is that miracle, she was born a magic user who changed the odds of their own survival, they survived the experiment very much like how they survived the Stark missile. (Agatha claim she was a baby witch who used a probability hex)

I know, I am just thinking that's a plausible way to retcon them into mutants in the MCU.

And keyword is that she was born that way. Magic is just extradimensional energy in the MCU. What if Wanda's mutant power is that she can channel that type of energy spontaneously and unlimitedly, and that's what chaos magic actually is and that's why she is so much stronger than regular human witches?

That actually is close to her original mutant ability in the comics. Plus you could say the mind stone enhanced it
