When in doubt I just go with the consensus, I mean there are a lot of genres now that I just go with what most said. Since I normally review retro games I don't really get too caught on genre discussion sine normally it's pretty cut clear with games of old what type of games are.

I mean to me the binding of Issac is a top-down action adventure game, but some, but hey if the majority say it's a "roguelike" game then It is.

Thank you for addressing this, not many people go this deep.
