Having a child in a car seat is the safest way to restrain him/her. In case of turbulence the baby can slip from the arms. If restrained in a seat (regardless if it lies flat or not) is much much better.

Also if OP wants to use his miles for this, not sure why he's getting flak about it. It's his prerogative.
He is completely free to do that. I just found it amusing and so will other traditional passengers on the flight. In all my flights so far (probably 750+ in 12 yrs), I have never seen a Car Seat in Business/First on a domestic or international flight (always seen them in coach).

As for him spending his miles, he is free to block the entire Business Class even using Standard Awards if needed. His choice and his miles.

As a member of FT, it is out duty to advise flyers on getting the best of their miles. After that it is completely their own choice.
