I answered this in your previous post: How does one place content relative to the page margin? - #2 by Andrew.
https://typst.app/docs/reference/layout/place/#effect-on-other-elements:
Overlaid elements don’t take space in the flow of content, but a
place
call inserts an invisible block-level element in the flow. This can affect the layout by breaking the current paragraph. To avoid this, you can wrap theplace
call in abox
when the call is made in the middle of a paragraph. The alignment and offsets will then be relative to this zero-size box. To make sure it doesn’t interfere with spacing, the box should be attached to a word using a word joiner.
