It looks like more than that, but tbh my cassette tool isn't compatible, which is annoying. I was considering using one of the middle-of-the-block spacers that are about 2-3mm. Bad idea?

Bad idea?
As @hamrack implies, use as much as you need but as little as you can get away with. Cassette lock rings don't have a lot of wiggle room on the thread engagement.

How wobbly? If it's only a little bit, the 1mm spacer used to fit most 10-speed cassettes should be enough, and you only lose one turn of lock ring thread engagement compared with your current bottomed out condition.
