I just want to clarify the answer - no standard directives in SDL and all of them in introspection. Right?

I would say they can be omitted in SDL and then the implementation should add default implementation. But SDL can contain standard directive, for example:
https://github.com/graphql/graphql-js/blob/c0cf320d3a569c83166ac93d36b2dfb81ebb5b75/src/utilities/__tests__/schemaPrinter-test.js#L593-L599

And it turns out that the @Skip and @include directives should never come with introspection since they cannot be used in the schema, they are intended for requests (ExecutableDirectiveLocation).

Reference criteria make sense for types but not for query directives if the directive location allows directives to be used in query document it should 100% be present in introspection.

Will this rule also apply to the @deprecated directive if it is not used?

This is an interesting question on its own. At the moment we put all directives into introspection even if they SDL ones. I would keep it as is until we figure out the solution for #300.

Standard directives question #632
