Roguelike vs Roguelite - what's the difference? (whatnerd.com)

My takeaway is that it's only original Rogue fans that care about the delineation of the terms. Is there a modern (i.e. post 2000s game) that matches the definition of a roguelike as given in the article?

Have you played the Multiverse mod? It's the only mod I've tipped my toes into, there's just so much content! My current run I started a few weeks ago on a Ghost Cruiser, and I just picked it back up and somehow now have a crew of full Mantis and no ghosts on node 4.
