Yes, that will put them in front of the camera and keep them there.

right now it goes like this;

error => my_ports => print
                         \=> normal_ports

This should never feedback. Any bug or typo in my ports or the print
function will cause feedback as the error system start generating errors.
Also; running my code again in it's entirely will get my own ports (which
are then "current" ) re-named as the default ports and so that will also
cause feedback (as they start sending to themselves) and completely take the
normal ports out of the loop.

Not sure that answers the question, but that's the two types of feedback
I've seen. Debugging error ports can be a bit tricky :-)
I suggest pre-emptively logging in to a virtual terminal and having a
"killall fluxus" ready there.

Yours,
Kas.
