Male cabin crew member panics seeing her in H-K, tells her its paid seats and makes a phone call (with the body language of someone who just discovered a suspicious bag in the WC), to the Purser asking what to do.
Matter amicably solved as purser said she can sit there while nursing, but has to eventually move back to D-G
These are bassinet seats and usually available to families with lap infants. Even the A-C and H-K seats, I believe.
I think a good outcome by the purser there, a compromise that enables breast feeding and privacy while protecting EK's economic interests
