The math is more that benefits aren't that great and the dangers are pretty big, especially if someone fails to properly secure the carrier and you get a rejected takeoff

Nobody is going to survive a crash where a 3 lb soft wearable baby carrier is travelling at a high enough relative speed to do any damage.

I do (barely) buy this for car seats. It obviously makes no sense for the baby carriers that the article is talking about.

Really? Flight staff are checking to make sure everyone wears a seatbelt. Check the carriers, too. Seems like a non-issue.

What parent in their right mind is bothering to bring a baby carrier and can’t manage to secure it?
