Closure of presentable objects under finite limits


Cartesian product of small objectsThe binary product of two presentable objectsWhat's an example of a locally presentable category “in nature” that's not $aleph_0$-locally presentable?Example of a locally presentable $2$-categoryIs the category of small categories locally presentable?About reflective full subcategories and small-orthogonality classesInfinite Fubini rule for co/limitsWhat is known about the large cardinal strength of Shelah's categoricity conjecture?Factorization systems on tensor product of presentable categoriesA formal condition for a functor to preserve compact objectsThe binary product of two presentable objectsIs every presentable category a limit of locally finitely-presentable categories and finitary left adjoints?

In a locally presentable category $cal E$, there are arbitrarily large regular cardinals $lambda$ such that the $lambda$-presentable (a.k.a. $lambda$-compact) objects are closed under pullbacks. Namely, the pullback functor ${cal E}^{(toleftarrow)}to cal E$ is a right adjoint, hence accesible. Thus it preserves $lambda$-presentable objects for arbitrarily large $lambda$, so it's enough to check that the $lambda$-presentable objects in ${cal E}^{(toleftarrow)}$ are those that are pointwise so in $cal E$. (A version of this argument is given in this answer in the case of finite products.)



Of course "arbitrarily large" means that for any cardinal $mu$ there exists a regular cardinal $lambda>mu$ with this property. A stronger claim would be that this is true for all sufficiently large regular cardinals $lambda$, i.e. to reverse the quantifiers and say there exists a $mu$ such that all regular cardinals $lambda>mu$ have this property (that $lambda$-presentable objects are closed under pullbacks). Is this stronger claim true?



Note that it is certainly not true that all regular cardinals $lambda$ have this property; counterexamples can be found here.
