Probably missing others but those are the main ones.
I do not own half of those, but for the ones I do-
Nemesis is supposed to be imbalanced. It has an irregular design to incorporate the designs of other 4D beyblades. Its three-sided shape is unique though. However, we already have Kerbecs doing things really well for three-sided wheels. Unicorno II is also preferred these days, isn't it?
Orion seems too light and small to me. Plus it isn't exactly circular. It wouldn't do much for Stamina, I guess. For Attack, it is already a great part.
Horogium is perfectly round yes, but it is light and has bad weight distribution, as th!nk mentioned. Plus it is compact. Considering the most-credible theory when choosing a CW for a Stamina type (having the CW perfectly aligned with the MW so that the weight-distribution is such that it enhances the "fly-wheel" effect of the combo and hence enhances the Stamina), Horogium's compact shape doesn't seem to help here. As always, it also makes the combo wobble too soon because of its uneven weight distribution. Plus, it is one of the lighter Clear Wheels. Like Orion, it was (or still is) popular for exposing the contact points of Attack wheels. So yeah!
