Yes I have tried placing nightshiftunlocker in /l/e and also /s/l/e (with kextutility)*all my other kexts including latest Lilu are installed in /clover/kexts/other.I had it on my to do list to check what best practice was regarding /c/k/o and /s/l/e and /l/e
@arpaterson,
You should never install kexts in /S/L/E on MacOS El-Capitan or later as it breaks SIP (System Integrity Protection)
For MacOS El-Capitan or later 3rd party kexts should be installed in /L/E .. see this guide for how & why :-
[GUIDE] Installing 3rd Party Kexts - El Capitan, Sierra, High Sierra, Mojave, Catalina
Installing 3rd Party Kexts in /Library/Extensions Note: This guide was originally written to support MacOS Mojave and older versions (< r5200) of the Clover boot-loader. The methods detailed here are now considered legacy methods and should only used with older versions of MacOS as detailed...

Also if you have Lilu + WhatEverGreen in /Clover/Kexts/Other but have installed nightshiftunlocker in /L/ E then it may not be able to link to Lilu as that will be outside of MacOS kernel memory because you are injecting it via Clover.
I personally recommend installing all 3rd Party kexts in /L/E (including FakeSMC) as per the linked guide above.
Make sure you set Clover Inject Kexts to Detect and only copy critical kexts required to run Installer, updater and recovery to /Clover/Kexts/Other.
Cheers
