That doesn't prove the universe is spatially closed. We will most likely never know, as it seems to be extremely close to the boundary between open and closed, so I suspect humanity will never know if the universe is spatially finite or infinite. That such a fundamental issue might be completely unknowable is a stark reminder of our own limitations.
