Shimano MTB BBs use one 2.5mm spacer (or smaller ones to make that up) NDS on a 73mm shell or two NDS and one DS on a 68mm shell

Isnt it the other way round. 68mm; 1 x NDS & 2 x DS. 73mm 1 x DS. Also MTB cups are 10mm wide as opposed to road which are 11mm so a road chainset fitted to an MTB BB will be 2mm too wide, so spacers needed if cant take up difference using the preload nut.

Yeah, of course it is, woken up early for the kid's birthday so bleary eyed. I did measure cups before using and they came up the same 🤷.
