I can understand your hesitancy. However, if the problem is the nut, the appropriate solution is the nut. Sure, you can raise the strings at the saddle high enough that it alleviates the problem at the nut, but doing so gives you less than optimized playability.

The cost is minimal to have a professional fill and re-cut the one nut slot. Depending on who does it and where they are located, around $25.
