I will review some aspects of the recent advances in the understanding of generalized-symmetry anomalies. I will then explain how they make it possible to improve and interpret a semiclassical calculation - first attempted in 1984 - of the gaugino condensate in super-Yang-Mills theory in the framework of twisted femtouniverse. I will describe the salient points and present some outstanding puzzles, to provoke discussion and stimulate further thoughts about semiclassics and continuity.
