Interestingly I had the opposite. The more recent interviews I did asked about the advantages and disadvantages of using monoliths vs microserviced, and how to overcome the common problems. I also had questions asking me how I would write frontend applications with and without central state management, or even for which cases I would start with a reactive frontend framework. In one of them I even had a huge disagreement with the interviewer. He still made a point to say I had passed. I think the main difference in this case was that I was interviewed by seasoned pros. When I had interviews with less experienced developers, the topics were as trivial as possible and just looking for confirmation.
