Is this possible that there is no way to explicit set the position of point of curve? For instance I want to set position of certain point to exacly 0,0,0. How can I do this?

You can use VEX for that. Drop down a point wrangle and type in this code.
if(@ptnum==0){@P = set(0,0,0);}
This will set point zero of any input, curve, or mesh to world origin.

You might also want to read this thread: https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/57847/?page=1 [www.sidefx.com]
...and perhaps submit an 'RFE' for some form of this feature.

SideFX did say that the Curve SOP will be getting some procedural love, but it's been a fairly long time since they said that, so hopefully H20 brings some nice additions to it.

wasn't that added in 19 or 19.5 or something?

Use the Edit mode in the curve tool, select the point and press p. Set Center x, y and z to the desired point in space.
