Every time I stop the main_old cluster with sudo pg_ctlcluster stop 14

I don't know how I got into this situation and I don't know how to
resolve it.
Is there both?:
/etc/postgresql/14/main/
/etc/postgresql/14/main_old/

Indeed, that is the problem, they are two different clusters,
pointing to the same data directory and reading from the same port.
I can't change the port because it is the same postgresql.conf
I don't know how to disassociate the main_old cluster from the data
directory or how to resolve this situation.

Blaming it on not enough coffee, but I just noticed both
clusters are
pointing at the same data directory. I would NOT do:
sudo pg_dropcluster 14 main_old
