So many problems arise from the idea that "we are going to do this thing to the maximum extreme and exclusion of other possibilities." Just look at the US legislature right now.

It might be OK for a microservice to do more than one job. As the highlight shows, the fundamental ingredient is Engineering Discipline. If we strive for that it might work out in a Monolith, Microservice, or somewhere in between.
