With award tickets, you can't pre-assign 5AC so your only choice is 5HK, that is if your spouse or the companion has status. Otherwise just pick any one other than the 2 rows with a missing window.
Do you know if having Platinum status on AA (Ruby on OneWorld) counts for getting 5HK? The tickets were booked using BA miles, so probably the BA FF is in their now.

Is the concern about getting ignored in the mini-cabin real? They are both shy and not likely to push the call button and would prefer to be offered things rather than having to ask for them.

Do you think row 8 or 9 will be too close to the galley and lav and there might be problems with noise/light/smell?

Thanks very much for the info and advice.
