Actually it says position less than the numeric value of the string
value of a child element called poscurrent which may or may not be
false, depending on that element.

But even if it said

<xsl:variable name="poscurrent" select="position()"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="following-sibling::Row[not(Cell='##')][position() &lt; $poscurrent]"/>

It wouldn't necessarily always be false (although it would probably
never be the required test). The current nodde list and the node list
selected by following-sibling::Row[not(Cell='##')] are certainly
different lists and so the meanings of position() in the two expressions
quoted are more or less unrelated, and comparing then may be either true
or false.
