I tend to agree, but I've managed to get along without it for some years.
You can't find it because it doesn't exist in Emacs.

Because Rokia doesn't know until he's already left this position that he
wants to jump back. And having to type `C-x r <SPC> R' after every editing
action is a little irritating, to put it mildly.
It is essential here for the position to be saved automatically.
