Why is Mama's baby a BT?

Mama's baby became a Beached Thing (BT) because it died during a terrorist attack at the moment of its birth, tethering its spirit to the physical world and, through an umbilical cord, to Mama, effectively keeping her "alive" but immobile at the site of the incident. As a BT, the baby's connection to the afterlife was severed, creating a unique, localized BT that bound Mama to the location, preventing her decomposition but also her movement.

Am I supposed to shoot Amelie in Death Stranding?

In Death Stranding, you cannot truly kill Amelie; trying to shoot her results in a game over or bullets passing through, as she's an Extinction Entity connected to all beaches, but the actual choice involves either "cutting the noose" (severing her connection to save the world but stranding yourself) or "pulling the rope" (staying with her, leading to the apocalypse), which is achieved by either holstering your gun and hugging her (good ending path) or letting her walk away (bad ending/failure). The "kill" option isn't literal; it's a symbolic choice to sacrifice her (and yourself) or let humanity end, but the intended solution to save the world involves empathy, not violence.
