Hereditary normality of a space of the form $\mathscr F(X)$

Abstract:
Assuming the continuum hypothesis we construct an example of a nonmetrizable compact set
$X$ with the following properties
1)
$X^n$ is hereditarily separable for all
$n\in\mathbb N$,
2)
$X^n\setminus\Delta_n$ is perfectly normal for every
$n\in\mathbb N$, where
$\Delta_n$ is the generalized diagonal of
$X^n$, i.e., the set of points with at least two equal coordinates,
3) for every seminormal functor
$\mathscr F$ that preserves weights and the points of bijectivity the space
$\mathscr F_k(X)$ is hereditarily normal, where
$k$ is the second smallest element of the power spectrum of the functor
$\mathscr F$; in particular,
$X^2$ and
$\lambda_3X$ are hereditarily normal.
Our example of a space of this type strengthens the well-known example by Gruenhage of a nonmetrizable compact set whose square is hereditarily normal and hereditarily separable.
