I did look in the manual and it said that you can't use the Latch if it's in the middle.....even though I can make it happen. Not sure why it would be frowned upon, it seems like the more secure it is in there the better.

One note, rear facing ones, you should always ensure that there is ZERO contact between the top of the car seat and any other obstruction, typically the back of the either of the front seats. If there is contact , it hinders the correct function of the seat during a collision, which is to clamshell against the rear seat.
Also, just to clarify, it isn't just frowned upon, it is illegal and IMHO probably compromising safety more than putting the seat on either side.
