Pointless going with double nuts for a router, esp one this size, the material, and the error or flex you'll have in the machine will far outweigh any error you'll see from the nut.
Also, depending on the rotating ball nut design the longer length of the nut could cause issues. Remember you will now be spinning the nut and at high speed, so a longer nut with the flange on the end of the nut will resonate more, the shorter the better really.
This is another reason for using 32m pitch because it's designed for high speed and uses a nut design that suits high speed better by placing the flange in the middle of the nut and recirculating the balls on both sides of the head flange. For a rotating nut, this is very important as it's much better balanced.
TBI is a reasonable quality ball-screw manufacturer and if you can afford the extra they are worth investing in. Ground screws are light years better than rolled but they also come with prices that can be out of this world on the higher grades.-use common sense, if you lack it, there is no software to help that.
