I'll just add in that room nodes exist due to the laws of physics, and that you really can't equalize them out
Yes you can, that's why REW exists. However, the EQ is (broadly speaking) only valid at the point where the response was measured and a region around that point whose size depends on the frequencies of the modes and the physical properties of the space, whereas well executed acoustic treatments can improve the response over a much larger area. At very low frequencies the treatments required may be unfeasibly large, though.
