If G:C→D preserves small categorical limits, the projection (X↓G)→C creates the small categorical limits available in C. A categorical cone of arrows X→GAj​ induces a unique arrow X→G(limAj​) by preservation; this equips the underlying categorical limit with its comma category structure. The universal property proves that every categorical cone factorization preserves that structure.
