Then what about SSU KB4465477? Is that mandatory?

Yes! Servicing Stack Update must be installed before installing the latest cumulative update.

“Windows Cumulative updates require that you install the latest servicing Stack Update (SSU) for your Operating system before installing the latest Cumulative Update (LCU). This helps to mitigate potential issues while installing the LCU. If you’re using Windows Update, the latest SSU (KB4465477) will be offered automatically.”

But WU hasn’t got the SSU in our case as the company mentioned.
