Just wondering, if a given panel advertises it can be OC'd to 200hz refresh rate (normal is 144hz) will this actually shorten the life expectancy of panel badly? Just wondering.

As sethk pointed out the panel will create more heat which has side effects.
An issue related to it is higher chance of image retention.
I used to make projectors from LCD panels, if the cooling wasnt up to snuff it caused image retention.
ie a ghost image of things that had been left on display for some time.
Above approx 40C made it much worse but current panels might be more or less prone, this was about a decade back.
Enough heat will cause it.
Yes.Is this why for example reference level monitors seem to have pretty beefy cooling in the back? Sony has I think full RGB OLED and now dual layer LCD models that have excellent picture quality for mastering purposes but they certainly aren't thin like TVs.
