I think it's forward against RTM components (22000.1) so you should not run dism/update cleanup you can do test integration for boot.wim/winre.wim if you added LCU, it auto-remove RTM components, then adding newer LCU will fail
Strange thing: I couldn't install kb5004237 LCU on freshly installed 21H1 Windows 10! (compatibility error!) But after installing kb5004945 (July 6 out-of-band CU), the kb5004237 installed without problem! I just can think of SSU, but it can't be it, right? because now SSU integrated to LCU. Do I miss something? Thanks in advance.
It's provided inside the MSU, not automatically used by dism. For being able to install kb5004237 the (very) old ssu version "Microsoft-Windows-ServicingStack" version="10.0.19041.903" is the lowest version needed.

There is no PSF file for any version of Windows 10 LCU updates. Only Windows 11 LCU updates requires the PSF payload file.
I see that people are using Windows10.0-KB5004296-x64-baseless.psf - LCU 19044.1051 - so original question was, where to get it from?
Why on earth would you want to get psf+cab instead of full psfx, it's not available for 1904x. Who is? And again WHY would they?

Maybe they pulled it out of their arse, who knows what kind of frankenbuilding they are doing, ask them.
