> A microservice is about the size of a service

Is it? Isn't it a purely organizational paradigm where each teams are responsible for a specific service and clear API boundaries are defined between teams? rather than the "size" of an application? (which is hard to quantify, if my app does AI and needs 100,000 line of code for a single endpoint, is it still micro?).

That's why I believe "micro" is an unfortunate qualifier what is essentially basic SOA.
