No doubt a frame-and-panel lid would be less likely to warp.
The design of the lid on the joiner’s toolbox makes no attempt to limit wood movement, except covering the end grain – it’s basically a great wide board floating in free space, and only careful acclimatisation to its home and selection of stable stock will help. I guess they did warp often but as utilitarian pieces it wasn’t a big issue.
All the best,
Matt
