I was agreeing with everything you said up till this point. Why not strangers on the street? You don't only owe courtesy to your friends.
Fact is, people in our society ARE uncomfortable with seeing a woman breastfeeding. It's not hard for a woman to find a private way to do it. The towel is an option. Going to an empty room is an option. Going to the car is an option. There's rarely a time when you'd say "oh shit emergency I gotta breastfeed RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW!!"
