It's a card game. Decks in card games are shuffled. Card games existed long before Rogue. Shuffling a deck doesn't make something "roguelike," much less procedurally generated.

It's a betting game. You lose when you're out of money. Betting games existed long before Rogue. Running out of money doesn't make something "roguelike."
