This change claims that a port is a position. The preceding sentences,
talking about "a particular port's position" and a port being moved,
make it clear that a port is *in* a position *in* the topology. The
port is not itself a position.
I assume this is a fix to make a bot happy, without actually checking
if the bot is correct.

Maybe to prevent a recurrence of the bot driver not validating the bot
output, a ',' should be added?
