Recently Moti Gitik refuted Shelah's PCF conjecture, by producing a countable set $a$ of regular cardinals with $|pcf(a)| \geq \aleph_1.$ See his papers Short extenders forcings I and Short extenders forcings II.
In Gitik's model the cardinal $\kappa=sup(a)$ is a fixed point of the $\aleph$-function.
Question. Can we improve Gitik's result to get a countable set $a$ of regular cardinals with $|pcf(a)| \geq \aleph_1$ such that $\kappa=sup(a)$ is not a fixed point of the $\aleph$-function?
