Position isn't absolute so if this happens this means you knowingly made the time machine memorize position relative to e.g.. the sun rather than the earth.
incorrect, that is not what this means. They could have forgotten about the position setting all together. Also why the suns position? it is also moving and non absolute, just like earths. Makes no difference in this meme
All of space is moving, you need to fix a reference point, there's nothing to stop you making it earth
Earth frame isn't inertial
