FC 4.2.1 / Joomla 4.4.0 - image parameter not working in category view

After upgrading a website from Joomla 3.10.12 to 4.4.0, we noticed that FC no longer fetches the image parameter defined in a category and its sub-categories in category view.
If we switch from Use image Parameter to Try paramerter then image extract, in the Image Source setting, the first image in the description field is loaded, however.
We are controlling the category view at the menu item level, even though the same behaviour happens if we disable the Override view parameters option.

Whereas in Joomla 3.10.12, the rendered source loads the image as follows:
Code:
<img class="fccat_image" src="/components/com_flexicontent/librairies/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/2020/icons/283x283/emissions_283.png&amp;w=283&amp;h=283&amp;aoe=1&amp;q=95&amp;ar=x&amp;zc=1&amp;f=png" alt="Prevention of Pollution by Ships" title="Prevention of Pollution by Ships">

The img element is completely absent from the rendered source when Image Parameter is chosen in the Image Source setting.

In terms of error reporting, there isn't much to go by.
Apache is silent, Joomla isn't saying much either, even though error reporting is set to Maximum.

The JS console throws a couple of errors that may or may not be related to the issue:
Code:
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input (at uikit.min.js:41:1) jquery.js?3.7.1:3783 jQuery.Deferred exception: Cannot set properties of null (setting 'innerHTML') TypeError: Cannot set properties of null (setting 'innerHTML')     at create_column_choosers (http://localhost:8081/mainsite-j4/components/com_flexicontent/assets/js/flexi-lib.js?879cc10a870c422251576b33306c65f5:1229:54)     at HTMLDocument.<anonymous> (http://localhost:8081/mainsite-j4/we-do/sustainability.html:154:4)     at mightThrow (http://localhost:8081/mainsite-j4/media/vendor/jquery/js/jquery.js?3.7.1:3489:29)     at process (http://localhost:8081/mainsite-j4/media/vendor/jquery/js/jquery.js?3.7.1:3557:12) undefined jQuery.Deferred.exceptionHook @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3783 process @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3561 setTimeout (async) (anonymous) @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3602 fire @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3223 fireWith @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3353 fire @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3361 fire @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3223 fireWith @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3353 ready @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3844 completed @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3854 jquery.js?3.7.1:3793 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set properties of null (setting 'innerHTML')     at create_column_choosers (flexi-lib.js?879cc10a870c422251576b33306c65f5:1229:54)     at HTMLDocument.<anonymous> (sustainability.html:154:4)     at mightThrow (jquery.js?3.7.1:3489:29)     at process (jquery.js?3.7.1:3557:12) create_column_choosers @ flexi-lib.js?879cc10a870c422251576b33306c65f5:1229 (anonymous) @ sustainability.html:154 mightThrow @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3489 process @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3557 setTimeout (async) jQuery.readyException @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3792 (anonymous) @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3812 mightThrow @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3489 process @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3557 setTimeout (async) (anonymous) @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3602 fire @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3223 fireWith @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3353 fire @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3361 fire @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3223 fireWith @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3353 process @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3577 setTimeout (async) (anonymous) @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3602 fire @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3223 fireWith @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3353 fire @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3361 fire @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3223 fireWith @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3353 ready @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3844 completed @ jquery.js?3.7.1:3854

FLEXIcontent is Free but involves a very big effort on our part.
