There isn't anything that's new, or at least anything that Microsoft is telling us. According to the blog post, this cumulative update is meant to test the servicing pipeline.
Of course, this is something that Microsoft does from time to time. A key part of testing is making sure that cumulative updates actually work, because those have to be delivered monthly throughout the lifetime of a feature update.

We know that 21H1 is no longer going to be a major update, so it's either going to be an enablement package like 20H2 and 1909, or it's canceled entirely.
Update: Apparently, there are some changes in this update:
