A few other misc things:
Isolated nodes can still be victims of node bullying. It could be a cool way to make node bullying easier to set up but it seems weird.
Jarring a node does not keep the Isolated tag. You'll probably also need to mixin Automagy for its advanced jar if you want to fix this for the pack.
Holding a thaumometer when looking at an isolated node should probably show "Isolated" along with the types and modifiers like Sinister or Unstable.
Nodes seem to do their offline regeneration the moment they are un-isolated if the player logged out and back in while the node was isolated. This is controlled by the catchUp flag in TileNode.

This should probably be renamed to IsolatedNodeRenderer to match the focus name

This is currently in the same spot as the Ethereal Bloom research. Moving it here seems like a nice spot:

+        @Local(name = "focus") ItemFocusBasic focus) {
+        if (focus instanceof ItemIsolationFocus) {


Maybe you could also check for the Purity focus here and remove ItemPurityFocus::onFocusBlockStartBreak.

+        AspectList cost = new AspectList();
+        cost.add(Aspect.ORDER, 20);


0.2 Ordo seems way too cheap. Not using terra or aer when those are the aspects used to craft it also seems odd. Maybe 100 (for 1 vis) Terra and 50 (0.5 vis) Aer would be a bit better. It should also probably be configurable.

This is rendered even without Goggles of Revealing. Was that intentional?

+        setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabMaterials);


Other BB items are in Thaum's creative tab.

Suggested change

setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabMaterials);

setCreativeTab(Thaumcraft.tabTC);

+    }

+    @Override
+    public int getActivationCooldown(ItemStack focusstack) {


This still triggers the cooldown for every left click, even when not actually used to isolate a node. I thought maybe adding WandManager.setCooldown(player, 500) to onEntitySwing after node.setIsolated would work, but it seems to only apply the cooldown for 1 tick before it is overwritten by something else, so I'm not sure what the best way to solve this would be.

This should probably also be renamed to match the focus's actual name.
