What I have done, and it passed muster of my AHJ, is to use a dual wire aluminum set screw lug (see picture) that is connected to the SI lug with two round copper 1/2" diameter "slugs". The cables from the battery then attach to the bolt hole on the set screw lug using a ring terminal. That allowed me to land MTW wire. There is plenty of room in the wire compartment and it actually looks pretty good.

Unfortunately I didn't take a picture, or I would post it here for hall-of-shame purposes. But the AHJ liked it and it has been working for a year now. It certainly cost me a whole bunch of time tempered my interest in Sunny Island inverters.
