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?

There basically is. “Run based games”. Stuff like FTL also fall into that category.
But also? Just because you like Stoneshard doesn’t mean you like Shortest Trip to Earth. Just like how “action games” covers pretty FPS and TPS and Platformers. Or how “FPS” covers arena shooters, Call of Duty, and milsims.
