MySensors will support 2 interrupts using sleep. I do not think it will support 3.
Use this format for the sleep call:
sleep(interrupt1, mode1, interrupt2, mode2, ms=0);
In your case: sleep(BUTTON1_PIN, CHANGE, BUTTON2_PIN, CHANGE, 0);
I don't know how to handle the 3rd interrupt.

I have been using this BLE method (python script) with Domoticz and a couple of raspberry pi zero W.
https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Presence_detection_(Bluetooth_4.0_Low_energy_Beacon)
One pi is near my driveway, and one on the other side of the house. I have an old Tile tag in one car and a Nut in the other. Both work fine for detecting when my cars leave and return. It also detects my Fitbit, an old one of the original type. I have that with me most of the time, so it acts like a tag for my presence.
I haven't done much with it so far except to turn on the porch light when the cars pull into the driveway at night.
Looks great. I'm still happy when I get an 0805 down well. Guess I have to keep practicing.
Great idea. I was thinking about an automatic tree watering system, but the water level sensing seemed complex, and where to hide the water tank. I see you have great answers for both problems : )
It's on my project list for next year.
I'm not familiar with the Adafruit bootloader. Going to have to take a look at that.
For use with MySensors, you don't use a softdevice.
Take a look at this thread if you haven't already:

I repurposed a breakout board to make an informal range test of an RA-01 (433 Mhz).
The test was not very sophisticated -- I had MySensors node request time from the controller and blink a LED when it received the time. Then I just walked around my neighborhood.
Lost the signal at ~ 156 Meters. This was down hill and through several houses.
Picked up again at ~ 248 Meters. This was at about the same elevation as my house but still through several houses.
It also works well in the far corner of my basement (2 floors and 1 or 2 walls). The NRF24 has trouble there, but RFM69 does not.
The range may not seem very impressive for a LoRa radio (I hoped for kilometers : ) , but the antennas are not optimized and this is a fairly dense suburban area -- difficult to get line of site. They certainly work well enough for any application I have in mind.
Recheck all your Nano connections. I think you still have the pin numbers and names mixed up. You will see almost all designs reference the pin name, because that ties back to the function in the microprocessor.
Your IRQ should be D2 for example.
Grab a Nano pinout from the web. You want to align the CSN, MOSI, MISO, SCK, to the corresponding digital pins for the Nano. You will also see pins with functions INT 0 and INT 1 Your IRQ has to go to one of those.
Look at the MySensors "How to wire the radio" page. It has the pins that are most normally used.
Welcome to the club. You can do some pretty amazing boards in KiCAD once you get the hang of it.
PS. If you are in the US, check out oshpark for some prototypes. 3 boards for $9 if they meet the size requirements, and they are faster than delivery from China.
If the clip above is from the Gateway, you are defining MY_NODE_ID 2. Usually the gateway Node ID is 0.
Do you see anything in the Domoticz log? If you reset the gateway, the domoticz log should show the gateway version and say gateway ready (if you are using the default gateway sketch). If you don't see that, investigate the connection to the gateway.
If Domoticz sees the gateway, does it see the node present itself when the node is turned on? Should show up in the Domiticz log.
I'd be interested to hear what you think compared to uLisp. The notion of uLisp seems a little strange to me. But then, I never got past thinking of lisp as just fun to play with.
