Shoot, that's practically a monolith compared to the nightmare from which I resigned earlier this year. No way would they have allowed the entire password reset to reside in a single service. It would have been in the password-db-reader service, the password-db-mutator service, and the password-checker-service, among others. Absolutely terrifying and unmanageable.

This is the flavor of reductio ad absurdum example I always give when people hype up the "micro" part of microservices. Only meant to be illustrative— I had no idea that any org was actually doing that sort of nonsense, yikes.
