Hello Noeppi, Mythic botany has been one of my favorite addons for botania right along side Zeith's Botanic Additions and I would like to share some suggestions/ideas in terms of progression and compatibility with Botanic Additions. (I have already made these suggestions in Zeith's discord).

Gaia Aura Band Crafting Compatibility:

• If Botanic Additions is installed, the crafting recipe for the Gaia aura band uses the greatest aura band instead.

Reason: I noticed you made a similar recipe change for the greatest mana band and thought why wasn't there one for the aura band. I tested it out to notice that the mana bands' storage lined up progression wise, but the aura bands did not. With this in mind I suggested in Zeith's discord to increase the aura band mana generation to be on par with its storage counter part so the greatest band can be a prerequisite.

Mana-Infuser Mana Cost Change and Crafting Compatibility:

• Increase the cost of making Gaiasteel and overgrowth seeds with the mana-infuser by 50%.

• If Botanic Additions is installed, the crafting recipe for the Gaia plate uses the mana-infuser instead.

Reason: When playing any modpack with both mythicbotany and botanic additions I never made the Gaia plate as the mana-infuser was able to make all the items from both mods. With this in mind along with looking at the mana needed to craft items and the respective crafting recipes, I saw that the Gaia plate can be considered the end game tier crafting plate. So to make it work out progression wise, increasing the mana needed to make gaiasteel and overgrowth seeds by 50% would insinuate players to upgrade the mana-infuser to the Gaia plate. I did suggest to Zeith to add Alfsteel as a crafting recipe for the Gaia plate, so determining on how much mana they make Alfsteel cost, the mana-infuser could still be needed for cost effective crafting.

Idea of sharing code with Zeith:
Although this isn't a suggestion more like a interesting idea/thought, I noticed that the mana-infuser has particles when crafting, even for Gaiasteel and overgrowth seeds, but no animation or sounds. The Gaia plate on the other hand has an animation and sound but no particles. So I was thinking maybe an exchanging of code so that both plates can have what the other is missing. Again this is just a thought and not a suggestion.

Thank you for taking some time to read all of this. I know its a lot and I understand if it doesn't happen. This was some things I thought would make my favorite botania addons be more intertwined with each other.
