Is 1/2" ply overkill for the (flat) panels of some shop cabinet doors? I am
making these cabinets for practice mainly (and storage of course).

Yes. The flat panels float (or should) and do not provide much
additional strength. The frame provides the strength. Mine are all
1/4" and have held up fine.
