I suspect that most people would be better off favoring inlined code over modules and microservices.

It's okay to not organize your code. It's okay to have files with 10,000 lines. It's okay not to put "business logic" in a special place. It's okay to make merge conflicts.

The overhead devs spend worrying about code organization may vastly exceed the amount of time floundering with messy programs.

Microservices aren't free, and neither are modules.
