We added s/c velocity to the Lo pointing set, but it is desired to also add position now too. Additionally, other ENA instruments (and SPDF) may find this information useful, so it might be worth adding to all pointing set products.
I think it would be updating this function to include adding position as well.

Then if this is added to all pointing sets, it could likely be removed from the L2 code that is using it for CG corrections.
NOTE: There is a noticeable difference on CG results depending on whether the beginning, middle, end of a pointing is used for the calculations. This should be discussed with instrument teams to make sure the time used is appropriate and noted.
