Details:

The documentation for axis properties at:

https://octave.org/doc/v5.1.0/Axes-Properties.html#XREFaxesposition

says for the "position" property: "Specify the position of the plot excluding
titles, axes, and legend. The four elements of the vector are the coordinates
of the lower left corner and width and height of the plot, in units normalized
to the width and height of the plot window."

When I run the following test:

graphics_toolkit("gnuplot")
plot(1:10,2:2:20)
hax=gca()
set(hax,"units","pixels")
get(hax,"position")
get(hax,"plotboxaspectratio")
axis equal
get(hax,"position")
get(hax,"plotboxaspectratio")
axis([-20 20 -20 20])
get(hax,"position")
get(hax,"plotboxaspectratio")


I see that the shape of the plot axes box changes but the "position" property
does not change.
