An alignment describes the relationship of more than one position to a standard of measurement. An alignment takes into account a certain context - the measurement of more than one position in relation to the same standard - maintaining the same relatonship to that standard. When creating the concept for a position one doesn't take into account more than one position and therefore doesn't try to relate two positions (motion) to a common standard of measurement.
To see an alignment as a position you have to drop, forget, ignore the "context" i.e. the standard of measurement being used and the constant relationship to that standard.
