I don't expect Nook to move front and center in B&N's list of priorities. But changing the amount of resources invested from zero to anything above zero is an improvement.
And as mentioned, it would give the new owners an easy way to start selling ebooks at their stores back home.

Not sure about that given both Daunts feelings on selling ebooks in Waterstones which seem to be tepid at best verging to less than happy to do so. And the bitter taste Nook has left in the UK after pulling the plug and shunting their customers off to a (I believe grocery chain) who in turn sold them to Kobo.
They’d be better off distancing themselves from nook on that front, at least for now and the foreseeable future until/unless Nook firms itself up.
