This raises interesting questions - how did the
topology of the Universe arise from the singularity?
Is the initial condition truly pointlike, or is
it a manifold or other structure with more complex
spatial organization?

If indeed this is the case, there would be a fundamental limit on our

before they decohered to produce our macroscopic world.
The beginning would be then forever shrouded in mystery.
