I was assuming the human infants killed in the flood to be innocent for the purposes of discussion. However, I think for us to judge them deserving (or undeserving) of the flood due to their own sinfulness would be to fall into the same mistake made by the neighbors of Job who so judged him.

From our limited human point of view, I think no creature can ever be so innocent as a human infant.

How that relates to Original Sin and and the Jesus freeing us from its chains and how God looks upon human infants, I don't know, except that I know He looks upon them with love as He looks upon all of us with love.

I don't know...

I agree FULLY here!

There is SO much that we don't know (and probably CAN'T know) this side of Heaven!
