It's possible. Grammar is not my strongest point so sometimes I don't write well English. I honestly don't know if "switched positions" or "switched position" is correct.

>position, no?
No. If changing position(s?) of objects has absolutely no detectable effect on anything in the observable universe then the only possible conclusion is that the objects are identical and that position is not an essential aspect of identity. Otherwise the word "identity" becomes a meaningless string of letters.
