If only Congress was as competent as Wile E. Coyote.

While I understand the idea of shelving a movie and writing it off for for tax deductions, I don’t understand the advantage of writing off movie after movie after movie and irreparably damaging their movie brand in the process.

the company canned its $90 million HBO Max film Batgirl, the first DC movie led by a Latina, for the tax write-off. No. They canned it because no one was going to go see it.
See "The Marvels" for current example.

The Day the Clown Cried is an unfinished and unreleased 1972 Swedish-French drama film directed by and starring Jerry Lewis. The film was met with controversy regarding its premise and content, which features a circus clown who is imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp. Lewis repeatedly insisted that The Day the Clown Cried would never be released, but later donated an incomplete copy of the film to the Library of Congress in 2015 under the stipulation that it was not to be screened before June 2024.
Fans and critics alike hope for the film's eventual release.

He doesn’t;t understand the economics of the situation. Batgirl was a $100 Million film, add in marketing for another $100 Million and you need to gross at least $400 Million to break even. They wrote off the $100 Million so that if it was a terrible dud then they might have to write off $200 Million or more.
Batgirl was still going to need some work done to it to make it releaseable but they could have they just choose not to.
