The missile knows where it is... It is where it wasn't.

It's all very simple.. pay attention, I'll only explain this once..
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By
subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is
greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to
generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where
it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where
it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now
the position that it isn't.

In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has
acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where
it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the
GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was.
The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of
the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure
where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be
from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where
it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is
called error.

As always - logical error:
>The position where it is, is now the position where it wasn't
It was the position where it wasn't the whole time

Not quite a logical error. Just horribly written.
Where it is = my kitchen
Where it isn't = my hallway
...To drive the missle from a position where it is (in my kitchen) to a position where it isn't
(not in my hallway), and arriving at a position where it wasn't (wasn't in my hallway), it now is
(now in my hallway).
In the event that the position that it is in (a new room, possibly bedroom or bathroom) is not
the position that it wasn't (still my hallway), the system has acquired a variation...

How do you figure? How is the missile where it isn't when it is where it is?
