We discuss recent approaches to the computation of black hole entropies through semiclassical estimates of appropriate state overlaps, saturated by Euclidean wormhole configurations. We notice that the relevant saddle-point manifolds may exhibit instabilities, thereby compromising the interpretation of the Euclidean path integral as a tool for computing positive-definite inner products. We show that a proper treatment using a microcanonical formulation effectively addresses the puzzles posed by these instabilities.

AdS Black Holes Are Short-Lived inside the Spectral Form Factor
For holographic CFTs on a sphere, the large AdS black hole saddle of the spectral form factor loses dominance at t=O(β) and disconnects from the integration cycle, curing the d≡5 (mod 4) divergence.

The Baby Universe is Fine and the CFT Knows It: On Holography for Closed Universes
A closed universe in AdS/CFT is not ruled out by recent SWAP-test arguments; the one-dimensional Hilbert space seen from the CFT is external indistinguishability, and CFT data can reconstruct the closed universe's geometry.
