I'm not sure he KNEW the demon used blue flames, and I'm not sure how she could have altered the spoon to use blue flames when everything so far has said Mikina is a demon contractor. A bit late in the story to suddenly go back on that or change that. If the reason of this was to prove that Seth does not know everything, the scene would be clearer about it. In change, the scene still drawing attention to the fact that the Clockworker’s Doll has an ability that Irina shares.

 Mothy making changes to what has been established in her previous novels is not uncommon. If I not mistaken, before Gift from the Princess who Brought Sleep ,  everything so far had said that there  was a Demon of Sloth.

 It wouldn not be strange that Irina has alter Marlon's Spoon (this wouldn't be the first time that she alters the Vessel of Sins) to channel her power.
