I don't believe you have to render the timeline before encoding, so
it shouldn't be a problem for you. Encoding is its own rendering, and
-- at least in my experience -- doesn't take advantage of earlier
timeline rendering, which is primarily available to make viewing
better during editing.
It may be worth a quick experiment: try encoding a two-minute
sequence with unrendered video to see if it must be rendered before
encoding. (All clips will remain unrendered after encoding if no
rendering was required.) If no rendering is required, then you won't
have to worry about the yellow bars and extra render time. I know my
projects don't render before encoding.
I just tried that experiment with an AVCHD clip on my own system. I
encoded the clip without rendering the timeline -- it took 46 seconds
and didn't render the clip. I then rendered the timeline which
rendered the clip, then encoded the now-rendered clip. Encoding took
46 seconds, so there was no difference.
I don't think you have to worry about rendering the timeline before encoding.

P.S. Whose Nutcracker are you editing? I can't count the number of
Nutcrackers I played in back in my musician days, and my retired
ballerina wife had me sit through countless more of them when she
danced them. I believe editing a Nutcracker might actually send me
over the edge into Christmas insanity, so I'm always happy to hear of
someone else gainfully employed doing it.
