A no-go theorem proves flat and open FRW universes cannot be nonsingular, geodesically complete and ANEC-consistent while closed universes can, with positive curvature mimicking phantom dark energy at the 1% level.
A closed k=+1 FRW universe with curvature-driven bounce and canonical scalar inflation remains sub-Planckian, satisfies the null energy condition, and produces ns=0.9617-0.9650 and r=0.0037-0.0045 consistent with data.

Affine ANEC selects the closed FRW branch for geodesically complete cosmology
Affine ANEC obstructs non-static flat and open FRW from being null geodesically complete while ANEC-satisfying, but allows explicit scalar-field realizations for closed FRW with NEC-respecting matter.

Open case for a closed universe
A no-go theorem proves flat and open FRW universes cannot be nonsingular, geodesically complete and ANEC-consistent while closed universes can, with positive curvature mimicking phantom dark energy at the 1% level.

Geodesically Complete Curvature-Bounce Inflation
A closed k=+1 FRW universe with curvature-driven bounce and canonical scalar inflation remains sub-Planckian, satisfies the null energy condition, and produces ns=0.9617-0.9650 and r=0.0037-0.0045 consistent with data.
