Someone in the thread mentioned that to get the benefits of micro services in a monolith, you can use a linting rule to prevent dependencies across modules

I don’t think that makes any sense. The main benefit of microservices is organizational, more specifically how a single team gets to own all aspects of developing, managing, and operating a service.

Lower in priority, there’s enabling regional deployments and improved reliability.

How are linting rules even expected to pull that off?
