The only stat I ever felt needed to be added was Speed. Yes, chakra and jutsus can affect your top speed, but the same is true of physical strength (and we still have that stat).
For the most part, I think the stats we use are based on the stats graph from the Databooks. Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Genjutsu, Intelligence, Force (Power), Speed, Stamina (Chakra Amount), Seal Knowledge. Seal Knowledge became Fuinjutsu and Juinjutsu. Stamina split into Stamina and Chakra Capacity (and I guess Chakra Control, though that could've been split from Intelligence or another stat). Force is now Physical Strength. Taijutsu and/or Ninjutsu have Sougujutsu split off from them. Genjutsu and Intelligence stay the same.
And to be honest, what would our yardstick be for sneakiness? 1 being pre-graduation Konohamaru? What's a 10 (we don't know because they're that good!)?

The distinction between Fuin and Juin jutsu is something I still don't get.
Our examples of Juinjutsu include the Hyuuga CBS, Orochimaru's Curse Seals (which for the longest time were the only two known examples of Juinjutsu), Fu Yamanaka's puppet juinjutsu (Shinten Kugutsu Juin no Jutsu), Danzo's Root seal, and possibly the effects of the "Seven Star Sword" of the Hax Bros.
Maybe Juinjutsu involves inflicting pain on someone? CBS causes pain on activation and death if left on long enough. Orochimaru's Curse Seals cause pain (if you don't have it evolved) or he activates a pain function of the seal. Danzo's Root seal paralyzes a person's entire body if they try to talk about incriminating stuff regarding Danzo or Root (this seal may or may not be the one he used on Sasuke, but I'm thinking not). Fu's Juinjutsu has the same issues that the Shintenshin no Jutsu does, namely that any injuries or damage inflicted on the possessed body are reflected on Fu's body as well.
