Yes, you can farm the gaia spirits with a Woot farm. I guess I haven't documented that you're able to do so. (Noted for later)
If you have other concerns regarding the balance of certain aspects of the nightmare mode, feel free to report them. In my own playthrough I have not encountered a roadblock I couldn't get passed yet (except the ones I already fixed). Developing and balancing only by yourself is quite a challenge and I appreciate all the feedback I can get.

well I think the draconic -> emc stage wasn't really well tested considering the amount of items required to make a transmutation table
well mostly these 4 items that are nothing but waiting for hours, or even years
9 133 000 dragon egg 18 306 000 nether star 408 000 000 draconium (134 040 780 after chaos gurdian + ender dragon) 18 573 000 gaia spirit
9 133 000 dragon egg
ender dragon 3000 ticks -> 4 egg 4 heart 32 breath 120 draconium
2 283 250 ender dragon simulation 9 133 000 end crystal 793 hours with 120 woot
18 306 000 nether star
wither 300 ticks -> 4 star
4 576 500 wither simulation 13 729 500 wither skull 18 306 000 soul sand 158.9 hours with 120 woot
18 573 000 gaia spirit
(18 138 -> 580 407 -> (for looping))
gaia guardian 3000 ticks -> 32 gaia spirit
580 407 gaia guardian simulation 580 407 gaia ingot 201.5 hours with 120 woot
18 138 gaia simulation 18 138 gaia ingot 6 hours with 120 woot
567 gaia simulation 567 gaia ingot 24 hour with 1 woot
but the most brutal waiting might be the amount of mana required to make all the gaiasteel which you need 18 864 112 of it
each gaiasteel is 1.75 mana pool, which means you would need 33 012 196 mana pool
3.3012196e+13 mana 450 mana per second per kekimurus 73360435556 seconds 20377899 hours 2326 years
There is a craftable guilty mana pool that would help with the grind but it requires a whole omega core which needs 9 million! gaia spirit yet again. I also would suggest maybe adding a custom Terrastrial agglomeration with Multiblocked, and a "mana*" producer with recipes that uses the flower items, with the actual flowers as catalyst for endgame to have a not laggy way of transfering mana
*where the mana would be an item instead of actual mana.
Thank you for doing all the math and pointing out something that clearly needs some adjustments. In my own playthrough I'm not quite yet at this stage to have encountered this by myself so I appreciate the effort. The easiest would be to rebalance some of there recipes, but I also like you idea of converting botania and it's mana stuff to something that can be fully automated by high speed machines made with multiblocked. That's definitely something I want to add now that you mentioned it. My todo list for the next major update is already quite long and I don't know if I want to prioritize the botania stuff just yet. Time will tell. But thanks again for taking a look at the modpack and giving some much needed feedback. :)
It seems to make an Extreme Crafting Table, for all the Crystal Matrix that goes into it you will need at least 250k Gaia Spirits. Does Woot allow you to make Gaia Spirits, or does the player have to gather them all manually? This seems a bit much to be doable.
Then again the other parts of the Nightmare Mode endgame recipes are basically impossible anyway.
