What makes a SotN-like different from a Metroid-like to you? Like I know what I'd mean if I used those terms, but I wouldn't call Silksong either one.
It's very much an SOTN-like (the char even moves exactly like Alucard), the only reason it wouldn't be is that it's also very much a soulslike. But those can overlap completely. Soulslike cannot fully overlap with Metroid though.

The difference is best shown in Ori 1 vs Ori 2 imo. Ori 1 is like 80% Metroid while Ori 2 is like 50/50 Metroid and SOTN.

Main diff with SOTN:
Melee combat and dodging
RPG elements
Loot/equips

Something feel especially Metroid if it focuses on:
Sequence breaking with abilities
Breaking walls for secret passageways
Gaining abilities from bosses
