Unitary QFTs are determined up to unitary isomorphism by closed-manifold partition functions; every reflection-positive partition function comes from a unitary QFT, so spatial wormholes do not break Hilbert-space factorization once the full charged spectrum is included.

A saddle point in the coupled SYK model yields a bulk geometry with a baby universe whose chord-diagram Hilbert space state is entangled with the exterior, giving evidence that closed universes can carry nontrivial quantum information.
