Nietzschian philosophy is applied by the individual, it doesn't have the infrastructure for societal application, whereas Abrahamic religion is designed to be both granular and large scale

Nietzsche recognizes that man cannot make himself believe, especially with regards to religious doctrine.

Nietzsche posits that to escape the chasm of nihilism left by religion, one must craft, as an ubermensch, their own morality.

If Nietzsche presupposes that mere will is not enough to make an individual believe, then how can Nietzsche’s position that a master morality, i.e. the morality which an individual both crafts for their own egoist pursuit, can be an adequate escape of nihilism?

That is, nihilism is the consequence of an individual losing their illusions about morality, namely religious doctrine. When such a thing happens, there is no foundation from which morality can be reliably ascertained.

If it is the case, as Nietzsche himself argues, that one cannot will themselves back into believing (e.g. in a religious doctrine), then how can one will themselves into believing their own moral poetry? What makes one’s own master morality more believable than an Abrahamic system? The answer is nothing.

The despair underlying nihilism is an outgrowth of uncertainty, and while it might distract an individual, it does not absolve their conscious of the task of searching for meaning and guidance.

Again, if one cannot will themselves to believe then one cannot reliably will themselves into believing their own doctrine. Nietzsche's philosophy fails to solve the genesis of the problem of nihilism, which is the uncertainty of it all.

Nietzsche himself lived embittered and later admitted this: ""all superior men who were irresistibly drawn to throw off the yoke of any kind of morality and to frame new laws had, if they were not actually mad, no alternative but to make themselves or pretend to be mad"

Moreover, the sort of detached egoism emerging from Nietzsche's theory is not good for any society. Show me a society in which group cohesion wasn't valued and I'll show you a civilization that was overrun long ago.
