I thought the wedges were carbon.This would be a suitable place for the anti seize. Alu bits and ti shell it's a recipe for galvanic corrosion.
I really wanted to love the Nitto one I've seen on @joewein (the flared one in the 1st pic below) but after multiple switch of bars and levers back and forth decided to go with a compact one (2nd photo). Nitto one had me just slightly overreached in this composition of parts unfortunately.
I thought the wedges were carbon.
But if you're not going to use the Nitto B135AA (450 mm), I'd be willing to take it off your hands!
With the steerer being so long, you are going to have to cut it to make it a reasonable length then add loads of spacers and play around with how high you want the bars.
If it was me, I'd persevere a bit longer with trying to make those flared bars work.
No shame in going shorter stem. I'm running an 80 cos 'gravel'.
I also pay attention to the handlebar reach now when buying bars.
