Not that I'm recommending, but just as an example of what can work:
In the late '80s, when I had little knowledge of repair, I filed a friend's Yahama guitar too low. Having NO idea what a "proper" repair would be o/t replacing the nut, I figured that a paste of superglue mixed with "reconstituted wood shavings" (more commonly known as "paper towel") would fill the slot nicely. It's still going strong 3 decades later.
