Yes, that's right. Teams not needing to communicate, beyond API contracts, allows them to scale the service they provide. When sharing code in a monolith then you have to meetings when you want to make changes that impact other developers, and that will soon take your whole day when there are thousands of workers, leaving no time to do anything. That leaves service that cannot scale. More simply, it takes how the macro economy scales software (and, really, most everything) and tries to apply the same processes in the micro.
