This confusion is actually quite common because of the similarities that you have pointed out here.A Weaken question is asking you to weaken the argument.
An Errors in Reasoning question is asking you to identify in abstract terms the flawed method of reasoning set forth in the stimulus.
Notice the terminology used in your example, "indicates a weakness in the position expressed above?"
It is not asking you to weaken but rather to point out the weakness, i.e. the logical fallacy.
That is why this is an Errors in Reasoning question as opposed to a Weaken question.
Hope that helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
