I had a guitar tech fit it for me. Looks pretty easy to remove and replace. Although you'd want the right tools if you need to sand the sides of the nut or file the nut slots.

How difficult is changing the nut? I have similar strangeness on a PRS se - I’d used an old string to “file” the nut and put a little graphite lube in which made some improvements, but I still find the tuning and intonation quite unstable.
I was going to just drop the thing into a professional, but if nut swaps are relatively easy - actually, it’s more that if nut swaps are reversible, I.e. always retain the ability to back out and never cause permanent damage, then I’d give it a go.
