Out of interest: Why not define all version numbers in the [versions] section?

You could, but in general I tend only to do this if several dependencies share a common version, to force having them synced versions.
To me this is one layer of indirection more. When I want to see the current version of a dependency I have to do one look more to see the actual version when using version references.
I favor seeing what I want to see as easy as possible, so I try to use version references only when there is a need to do so.
But that's just personal preference I guess, the format itself allows doing what you asked for and I can't find any official recommendations.

Would it make sense to separate test dependencies as well?

Yeah 👍 I'll do updates in separate PRs
The version catalog is a Gradle standard feature to define dependency versions in a single source in multi-module projects.
Using a standard features has two major benefits:
Also remove unused third party dependencies from
kgraphql-ktor.
