Applying a round based criteria to some fancies can lead you to worse cut diamonds.
Also you can follow the numbers and cut a ags0 light performance round not so with step cuts, you can follow their directions and cut a dog.
Why?
AGSL does not grade patterns and the obstruction model is deeply broken.
The deeply broken obstruction model is not a huge deal with MRB but it is with other cuts.
Some beautiful step cuts will get ags0 but they did not get that way because of being ags0.
On the other hand a sub-par step cut could be ags0 but have poor patterns and less than beautiful obstruction areas.
