I've come to view microservices in the context of Conway's Law. If you have a team of developers working on a project who don't like to communicate or work with each other, do not understand version control, and all have different programming styles and technology choices, the only feasible architecture is one service per person.
I have no trouble believing that this is what's really behind Netflix's adoption of microservices. From what I've heard it's a sociopathogenic work culture, and if I worked there I would probably want to just disappear from everybody too.
