Googler here. You are absolutely right. I would never ever do something the Google way outside of Google.

Google has a dedicated organisation for maintaining all the infrastructure required for and around microservices. We are talking about 500-1000 engineers just improving and maintaining the infrastructure.

I don't have to worry about things like distributed tracing, monitoring, authentication, logs, logs search, logs parsing for exceptions, anamoly detection on logs, deployment, release management etc. They are already there and is glued pretty well that 90 percent of engineers don't even have to spend more than a day to understand all that.
