Microservices can trample on each other just as easily as monolith internals can. If anything, the friction of reconciling changes in a monolith is useful signal that conflicting changes happened, and it takes slow and flaky e2e tests to replicate in microservices. It's not like you're resolving the merge conflicts by hand.

I don't understand why microservices would have fewer merge conflicts than monoliths.
