Non-reflecting subset ($\{\delta <\lambda :\mathrm{cf}(\delta )>\omega ,X\cap \delta \text{ stationary in }\delta \}=\varnothing$)

A subset $X\subseteq \lambda$ is non-reflecting in the indicated sense if it is not stationary below any $\delta <\lambda$ of uncountable cofinality. The subset itself need not be stationary. Nonreflection is inherited by subsets. With this definition every subset of ${\omega }_1$ is non-reflecting, since all smaller ordinals have countable cofinality.

For a coherent club set sequence, the limit points of $C_{\delta }$ form a club set whenever $\mathrm{cf}(\delta )>\omega$. Along these points, $\mathrm{otp}(C_{\gamma })=\mathrm{otp}(C_{\delta }\cap \gamma )$ strictly increases, so a fixed fiber $E_{\xi }$ meets this a club set at most once and cannot reflect at $\delta$. Under the square principle order-type bound, the fibers with $\xi \le \kappa$ partition all limit ordinals below ${\kappa }^{+}$ into $\kappa$ non-reflecting pieces.
