Hello.

Is there any way to place the Warp Tool pin points in precise locations, for example in the exact center of a circle?

 

This should not be difficult yet I can't find any way to make the points snap to precise positions.

Excuse me but I don't believe you actually understood the question. 

 

Your provided video doesn't explain how to precisely place a point in the exact center of a cirlce.

That doesn't work.

If you can't really center an Asset Warp Tool point, it's okay, just say it can't be done.

I'm sorry but my original question was never about "mouse skills".

You can either provide an example of how to precisely place the point in the center of the object or you can't.

 

Go ahead, try it yourself:
You can't place a Warp Tool point over guide lines.

I don't use the Asset Warp tool, but I had no difficulty placing a pin in the exact center of a circle:

As suggested by @kglad  I marked the center with guides.

Zoomed in to 2000% and placed the pin tool exactly above the intersection.

Tried to click, but the click did not register. Then I hid the guides with a keyboard shortcut and clicked again.

This time the click registered and a pin was placed exactly at the middle which we can confirm when we reshow the guides.

For precision, I did all this at maximum zoom.
