Comment (by ironprogrammer):

 Thanks, @rufus87!

 ==== Testing
 I am able to replicate this issue given the following conditions:

 - WordPress version is 5.9.
 - Active theme is a registered block theme.
 - Theme registers widget support: `add_theme_support( 'widgets' )`.
 - Theme hooks the `customize_register` action.

 ==== Patch
 Please check the patch against [https://developer.wordpress.org/coding-
 standards/wordpress-coding-standards/php/ WordPress's PHP coding
 standards] or a utility like `phpcs`, which should help resolve the errors
 on the PR's merge check.

 ==== Notes
 Menu item position `8` is not "reserved" for any other menu item, so this
 shift does not interfere with other built-in menu items. As such, the
 check for `wp_is_block_theme` may not be strictly necessary in this case.
