If the cabinet is there to stay and so is the TV, cut out the cabinet back just larger than the mount plate. Just one more way to git ‘er done.
BTW, sitting on a shelf is usually less than ideal as you know. The mount may be all the way to the front of the shelf, but the screen will be recessed 4-6”.
