I've never known where I stand, I'm not sure if it's a order or a forceful request.
I had someone complain about my window shade on BA16 well before Alice Springs a couple of weeks ago so it was still daytime outside, apparently the lady's baby couldn't sleep and that was my fault. The FA was hugely professional I about it I think. I explained to the FA that I like to be able to see out of the window when there is turbulence, that's how come I reserved a window seat. So no, I am not closing it. She said that's fine and went back to tell the baby lady.

Do that, I am surprised you were given a hard time, so long as BA charges for advanced seat selection, they can hardly tell someone that pays to choose a window seat that they are not allowed to look out of the window.
