Canon's EOS R7/R10 subject tracking moves AF points to follow subjects
Subject tracking moves AF point

The EOS R7 and EOS R10 Tinherited elements of the AF from the pro EOS R3, and this means that when set to Servo AF, the AF point might move from where the photographer positioned it. The reason is that subject tracking is the default setting for these cameras, so the location of the AF point is the initial section of the frame to be examined to locate the subject. Once located, the subject is tracked by moving and changing the AF frame if the subject or camera moves. This is different from the other EOS cameras, where a single AF point would not be moved by the camera to track a subject.
