Material Design: using cards for homogeneous content instead of list

The material design guidelines suggest to use lists for homogeneous content and cards for mostly heterogeneous content. It also suggests that if the content is more than 3 lines long then use cards instead of lists. Does it mean even for homogeneous content which may be longer than 3 lines but will still have the same structure for all items, we should use cards?

Some examples would be great.
