Stoneshard seems much more classic Roguelike to me than lite.

I unabashedly consider it a like and categorize it that way in steam. But going by the Berlin checklist, it is more a lite.

But it should be the gold standard for all likes at this point

I think the only items it's violating are being non-modal (which is violated all the time genre defining Roguelikes) and by not being ASCII (ditto, pretty much every genre defining roguelike has a tileset these days).
