Okay, but if you’re allowed to submit ‘well structured modular componentized librarified monolith’ as an example proving how monoliths aren’t all bad, I’m not going to let you insist on holding up ‘cargo cult grpc mess’ as proof that microservices are terrible. Let’s compare the best both structures have to offer, or consider the worst both enable - but not just compare caricatures.
On the contrary, as the sales speech at conferences is that the mess only happens with monoliths and the only possible salvation is to rewrite the world as microservices.
Good programming practices to refactor monoliths never get touched upon, as otherwise the sale would lose its appeal.
