ᐅ Are deviations of about 1.2 cm in the kitchen measurements due to fine plastering problematic?

Hello everyone,
I have ordered my first kitchen (L-shape plus kitchen island). Since it is an old building, after measuring and kitchen planning, it turned out that the electrical wiring had to be completely rearranged. This has already been done, and now the numerous electrical channels need to be filled and the walls replastered (the wallpaper will also be removed).
According to the painter, about 4–6mm (0.16–0.24 inches) of plaster will be applied to the walls.
My question is: are deviations of up to 6mm (0.24 inches) per wall compared to the already completed measurements problematic, or is there usually a tolerance accounted for in practice? Since the longer side involves two walls, this adds up to a deviation of up to 1.2cm (0.47 inches) in total. On the shorter side, where a freestanding refrigerator will be placed, a 1cm (0.39 inches) difference is not an issue.
The countertop is natural stone.
Unfortunately, my kitchen installer is on vacation until next week, while the painter is scheduled to start in the middle of this week.
Attached are some pictures of the planning.
Thank you very much in advance!

Hello Everhard,
I just saw your floor plan and the pictures and thought: hey, we’re planning something similar! The layout and design are quite alike!
May I ask who designed your kitchen? I would have sent you a private message, but unfortunately, that’s not possible.
Is your kitchen already installed? Are you happy with the layout? I’m still considering whether our kitchen work triangle is well positioned, or if you always have to walk around the corner of the kitchen island...
Best regards
SandraAnne Hello Sandra,
The kitchen was installed this week but hasn’t been used yet.
The kitchen studio was a local provider near Munich, and we were very satisfied with them.
Kind regards
