I shall revisit my planned project some time in the future.

That's a bummer.

Thanks for all the suggestions - it appears that when you get right down to it there isn't, currently, a supplier that I've tried (about 20) that has B/BB Birch long-grain with no repair plugs in 9 or 12mm. There are a couple of pseudo plywoods available like Artisan/Artizan but they are almost like a "melamine laminate" with the thinnest of thin top surface, and the grain pattern is nothing like Birch.

I shall revisit my planned project some time in the future.

Was there supposed to be a link in your post?
===========================
... just to add to my comment - a number of suppliers listed B/BB plywood BUT when questioned said it had repair plugs - so that's not B/B - the grade description for B/BB is:

B/BB: Single piece face and back veneer. Face veneers are considered clear and free of defects with a light-uniform color. Back allows 3-6 color matched patches, which are oval in shape and egg sized. Inner cores are solid birch single piece veneers.

. . . and for BB/BB

BB/BB: Single piece face and back. Both face and back veneers allow 3-6 small color-matched patches on average and some light mineral streaks. Tight pin knots may be present. Inner cores are solid single piece veneers.
