Microservices and monoliths have never been about cog load. Its an implementatiom detail that solves scaling, deployment and team managment problems.

The cog load should be fairly similar weather you jave micro or monolith.

There are good and bad abstractions but in the end the cog load is a sum of the leaves and this never changes in the tree. In fact the cog load is better with bad abstraction , or no abstraction.

Hard coding is no cog load. Its in that file that function for that feature.
