AB Level keeps the loudness after all plugins on the same level as before the plugin chain. This is mainly used to compare the impact of plugins in a "fair" listening environment (remember: louder "is" better).
Autogain levels the input gain of plugin(s) e.g. Nebula to a defined level (e.g. -18dBFS) and after it removes the fixed gain change (please refer to Nebula gain staging). This does not mean that the loudness after is the same as before.
In other words:
use Autogain to set the right gain for Nebula
and wrap AB Level around to compare effect of Nebula (or any other plugins) on the same loudness level.
I hope this helps
