  I took a quick look at this in Cram and the yellow nuance hint says
  [not only, but also ・ formal pattern]
  I think that points you to ばかりでなく because of the translation and because と共に is casual. If you haven’t already done so, I recommend changing your settings so that “Review English” is set to “Always Show Nuance”. For these tricky ones.

  Also, I think the も in the second half of the sentence also makes it less likely to be と共に.

  だけでなくて～も (N3 Lesson 6: 12

  Also, there’s another issue with this grammar point’s text:

  In the About section, all four example use the augmented pattern ばかりではなく, with the extra は thrown in there. I’m not sure why all four sentences would need to use ではなく instead of just でなく, since this point is described mainly in terms of でなく.

  However, it’s possible that the original intention was to have, say, two sentences using でなく, and then another two using ではなく, with some text in between explaining the different nuance. I say this because there is already text after the four sentences saying:

  Perhaps the resolution could be:

  1. Change the first two (or three, or whatever) sentences so that they only need/use でなく.
  2. Move the paragraph ...
