Starting Position question

In the manual, the section describint the robot's initial placement on the field is a little vague. It says:

QUOTE:

"Robots will initially be placed within the starting areas in the alleys at the sides of the platform/ramp structure. Each alliance’s robots will start on the far side of the midfield barrier."

Does this mean that the robot has a specific square to be placed on WITHIN the alley, or that the robot can be placed anywhere in the alley?

The meaning of this section is disputed in my team, and before proceeding further with any strategies that are dependent on this (as well as programming, ), I would appreciate clarification from y'all.

Thanks everyone!
