So what was needed to list? Sometimes I don't think, what does this binance really want?

The keyword here is liquidity. This must have something to do with volume therefore. So what is needed in terms of pair listing is a decent volume. As to how much is a decent volume. That is totally up to Binance's terms. But in the case of these specific delisted pairs, it is clearly noted that it is as per request of the project teams themselves and not because Binance decided to delist them.
When I look at the trading pairs, I can say that there must be low volumes to them because the pairs are not that popular. I can only see a couple of pairs with BTC, a couple of ETH, and one BNB. The rest are pretty much unpopular trading pairs.
