  At the minisuperspace level of homogeneous models, the bare probability for a
classical universe has a huge peak at small universes for the Hartle-Hawking
`no-boundary' wavefunction, in contrast to the suppression at small universes
for the `tunneling' wavefunction. If the probability distribution is cut off at
the Planck density (say), this suggests that the former quantum state is
inconsistent with our observations. For inhomogeneous models in which
stochastic inflation can occur, it is known that the idea of including a volume
factor in the observational probability distribution can lead to arbitrarily
large universes' being likely. Here this idea is shown to be sufficient to save
the Hartle-Hawking proposal even at the minisuperspace level (for suitable
inflaton potentials), by giving it enough space to be consistent with
observations.
