Has anyone actually attempted this? Also curious if this will require another interview for PreCheck.

I did it. Enrolled in PreCheck and went to the enrollment office at DCA to finalize and pay - that took about 4 minutes.

Standalone PreCheck applications are processed by the TSA, yes, an interview is required; please refer to the following thread: The TSA PreCheck Information Thread. NEXUS (in the US) and Global Entry are managed by the CBP. Both NEXUS and Global Entry include PreCheck.

If you applied for NEXUS renewal before the expiration date, you will continue to receive all NEXUS benefits pending the final approval of the renewal application. Please refer to post number 865 in this thread.

So says the Nexus site, but it’s sounding like that the CBP may not care. Here’s anecdotal evidence of two incidences of no Pre-Check for travelers who had received conditional approval for renewals and were awaiting appointments for interviews.
Any reports from folks in the same situation who are getting Pre-Check with each flight?

Are there options for her to be able to get PreCheck or GE in the interim while stuck in Nexus limbo? Or is this just a Catch-22.

Did that have any impact on your Nexus application? My Nexus expires next April, I applied for renewal a few weeks ago, got conditionally approved quickly pending an interview, but of course no appointments exist. I am flying next week, will see whether I get PreCheck. If I don't, and it is possible to get without affecting my Nexus enrollment, I would be willing to go that route.

Also - I assume that the only benefit anecdotally affected seems to be PreCheck. Global Entry continues to work, correct?

Check the TTP website for the status of your membership. Either your membership is valid (due to the various validity extensions) or it is not valid. There should be no middle ground - either valid or not valid.

My Nexus application status still says "Pending Review".

I spoke with a Canadian officer on the Nexus help line Friday afternoon and he said it appears that while Canada is extending benefits, the US may not be as people are only “conditionally approved” (or whatever the phrase is) until the renewal interviews take place.

That is incorrect!

From the US CBP National Media Release:
CBP reminds the public that the agency took measures earlier this year to minimize the impact of the temporary enrollment centers closure on Trusted Traveler Program applicants. Each applicant now has 545 days from the date that CBP conditionally approves his or her application to complete the enrollment process. In addition, CBP will extend for up to 18 months the Trusted Traveler Program benefits of members who apply for renewal before their current membership expires.

Is your previous expiration date June 2021?

Yes, that's what the website says- but we're seeing anecdotal evidence (as quoted earlier) that some people are not receiving all their benefits. According to both the US and Canadian agents I spoke with today, it could be that ID in their trusted traveler record expired between the time the application was filled out and the year(s) it is taking to get an interview. I asked about this as I just got an updated license and wanted to update the expiry date in my record.

If your license or passport expires during the wait time for an interview, your record can't be updated until after your interview. Both agents said that WILL cause a problem when it comes time for PreCheck. The Canadian agent wouldn't say whether it would affect Nexus, but the US agent indicated Global Entry could be affected by an expired passport date in your record.

Applying for standalone PreCheck was offered up as a way of getting through US airport lines quickly this summer, as no one knows when Canadian borders will open for interviews. The clock is ticking - you're given a two year extension from your original expiry date (not the date of your renewal), so people with Feb 2020 expiry dates are extended only through Feb 2022 - 8.5 months from now.
