If you are buying a stack-up type - consider a Metric. Ply is metric

complex set of shims I have both Metric & Imperial. Look at the box and
pick the right set. More is better.

Consider using older wood and newer wood....

I don't think it matters. You have to measure and use shims, in
either case.

So true.
I've never had plywood from two different pallets be the same thickness
anyway.
