Yeah...I don't think he was talking about "distributed monolith" in that instance, but he does talk about it in the article. It's weird, cause he obviously knows why it's an antipattern, and why microservices are a categorically different thing, but then says stuff like that, with what I can only assume is a straight face.
I think maybe he's trying to bolster his point that "it's not a binary distinction, and you're trying to achieve the same things with either architecture," but you gotta be careful to not accidentally say "mix and match, anything goes!" And IMO he's not that careful, lol.
My test is always "What is my hypothetical simple-but-pushy CTO going to latch onto and how annoying would that be for me?"
