With κ an uncountable regular cardinal, finite partial functions on κ×ω assigning a value below the first coordinate collapse every ground ordinal below κ to countable size. The Delta-system lemma gives the κ chain in a partial order condition; the possible-values lemma for chain-condition forcing then preserves the regularity of κ. Therefore κ becomes the extension ω1​. Strong inaccessibility is enough but is not needed for this identification.
