You may or may not be correct, but if the 'correct' form of roleplaying a class is as out-of-the-norm disruptive to the group/DM, that's probably not a good sign, unfortunately. Especially when it's one of the 'core four'.

I'll reiterate that it's not every rogue, and there's plenty of builds you can make which don't incentivise that sort of disruption - you don't need to have Stealth proficiency at all! - but it's still something that has stuck in the old noggin.
