Some of these got repurposed or found life with different distributors. Point is that mergers are chaos for productions. It's a bit unusual for projects that are in post-production to be shelved, but not unprecedented.
WB would never sell off Batgirl and SCOOB to other distributors because they are part of IP they don't license out. That's a key difference between those projects and Nimona. (Also, Disney didn't sell Nimona to Netflix; Disney canceled the project, and the producer team of the film were essentially free agents able to sell their product to another studio, which they did, though it took nearly two years.)
Maybe if WBD sells DC the Batgirl film could see the light of day, but that seems highly unlikely.
