Etymology
'customarily-positioned' originates from the combination of 'customarily' and 'positioned'. 'Customarily' comes from 'custom', which originates from Latin 'consuetudo', meaning 'habit or usage'. 'Positioned' comes from 'position', which originates from Latin 'positio', meaning 'a placing'.
'Customarily' evolved from Middle English 'custumary', and 'positioned' evolved from Middle English 'posicioun'.
Initially, 'customarily' meant 'according to custom', and 'positioned' meant 'placed'. The combined term retains these meanings in modern usage.
