Without getting tied up in the whole "every language except assembly, Python and possibly JavaScript already solved this problem by forcing people to adhere to module-level APIs" argument, I think the crux of the issue is that the article just defines microservice architecture as any architecture consisting of multiple services, and explicitly states "there doesn’t have to be anything micro about the services". Which imho is watering down the term microservices too much. You don't have microservices as soon as you add a second or third service.
