Cause
This is an expected Behavior.
The sync pop-up is just relevant for the sync between Position to Job Information, that is configured via rule in Position Management Settings. Changing the supervisor based on Parent Position Change is done through a background job if the leading hierarchy is set as position. This will always be executed independent of the sync rule.
Resolution
If the record in job information is not required then it has to be deleted manually. It is not possible to prevent the manager sync if the leading hierarchy is Position.
