I don't think you truly appreciate how lucky you are to have an ex who will work with you on the kids. I wouldn't make any changes based on you current SO. Your kids and/or ex might resent it.
I think if worse came to worse, your current SO should give in and take the nights you all have. The kids won't even want to see you much in a couple of years.
Can you show your SO in some other way that she is very important too?

I try to show her how important she is as well. I send flowers to her work, take her out to dinner on our Friday night together, randomly buy little things for her because I'm always thinking about her. She just wants to have that Saturday night alone with me so we can wake up together Sunday morning with no kids. In my opinion that's overrated but maybe that's because I'm biased.
