Go crit, det, acc. It's so much cheaper and will allow you to get your novus done quickly so you can start working on your Nexus. Don't worry about having the *perfect* novus right away. It's more important to just get your novus done. Besides, if at some later point you really want those perfect stats, it's really easy to redo your stats at any time. If you end up with however many millions upon millions of extra gil needed to get all that crit/det IV materia, then you can strip off all that accuracy (without losing any crit/det you've put on already) and just fill in the remaining crit/det as needed.

IE: 23 det, 33 crit, 19 acc

you can strip off 19 acc, with 19 alexandrite you can then put on the remaining 8 det, 11 crit to create the *perfect* 31 det, 44 crit novus. You can even do this after you have created your nexus, and it will still cost the same amount to *fix* it (you don't need more alexandrite just because the nexus has more stats total).

You can still do the daily quest for alexandrite even after you've got your novus. Just keep doing that quest and you'll have the alexandrite handy any time you want to fix your novus/nexus. You'll want to do this anyway because the alex maps give light for your nexus.
