 Full second-order replacement rank obstruction

If $V_{\lambda }$, for an infinite cardinal number $\lambda$, satisfies Axiom schema of replacement for every external functional class, then an external cofinal function from an ordinal below $\lambda$ cannot exist: its range would have rank of a set $\lambda$ and would have to belong to $V_{\lambda }$. Similarly, a surjection $\mathcal{P}(\theta )\to \lambda$ with $\theta <\lambda$ is impossible. Infinity therefore makes $\lambda$ an uncountable regular cardinal and a strong limit cardinal. Full semantics for second-order logic, allowing arbitrary external functional relations, is essential.
