Dumbest? really? Babies are supposed to be dressed in a manner that an adult would find comfortable in order to avoid over- or under-dressing them. Do adults all sleep with multiple layers of covers on their arms? Of course not. A sleeveless sleep sack does not mean that their arms are uncovered. Babies wear something under the sack.

Buntings in days of yore covered everything but the babies face and if they turned their head, they could suffocate. Where will it all end? Let the parents decide based on good sense (seemingly lacking here) and what their OWN physician advises.
