No, but I've built at least one project where I'm 100% sure that if we had not chosen the 'micro service' path we'd never have completed it at all. Mind you, this was in the early 90's and we called them administrators but the end result was much the same. Easy to understand components fit together with lightweight glue.

That project was exactly that, fast startup with 3 programmers, one of who was doubling as the tech guy. It made a few hundred million and it is still running today in more or less unmodified form (it's a bit prettier now, but the essence remains).

Monolithical development has a fairly low ceiling of complexity before you drown.
