Going forward, that would seem the best way to go, assuming that planning for extra time at the airport for stopping at the counter instead of checking in online isn't a hassle.
The website won't allow it, phone agents can and put documentation in so it doesn't trigger an unaccompanied minor notification. It will be ineligible for OLCI even with the documentation.
