Citations are hard due to online sources being 50/50 "This is great" and "Do this and your child will die".
But you don't have to search too far to find genuine cases of a children being smothered by sleeping parents, even more than one child by the same parent(s) for example:

I know different advice is given in different countries, and training is updated over time, but we were certainly told "Don't do that" by our Finnish healthcare-people, and I've seen medical literature that correlates SIDS with bed-sharing.
Some discussion is here, although to be fair I could also find 100% opposite advice elsewhere:

This age old advice fails to take into account so many risk factors prevalent today namely medication. Loving limits, your goal is to raise a responsible INDEPENDENT human being. Children have become train wrecks from overparenting: helpless, incapable and exhibiting bad sportsmanship. Healthy boundaries, help the child to help himself.
