Working hypothesis on embedding partial orders into the Rudin–Keisler ordering of P-points

Let MA(σ-centered)\mathsf{MA}(\sigma\text{-centered}) hold, and let (P,<)(P,<) be a partial order of size at most 2c2^{\mathfrak{c}} such that every pinPp\text{in}P has at most c\mathfrak{c} many predecessors. Working hypothesis. The partial order PP embeds into the Rudin–Keisler ordering of P-point ultrafilters. The statement is presented as a working hypothesis motivated by the known cardinality restrictions on the ordering of P-points; the text says that a stronger version asks for embeddings into both the Rudin–Keisler and Tukey orderings, and attributes this formulation in question form to Raghavan and Shelah.
