My concern was more over the issue of delamination of the veneer over time.
I realize that application of the veneer is critical, but my experience has been that the thicker the veneer, the less warp and buckle over the surface.
Since pocket doors get a lot of "abuse" and can be subject to warping, I would suggest using the thickest veneer you can get. The thicker veneer will survive hits and kicks, that would put a hole in thinner veneer.
