The latency is kind of a FUD with topology aware routing.

It’s not FUD if you are making hundreds or thousands of calls. Many “chatty” apps slow down dramatically when the wrong network boundary is drawn in the code.

The difference between a function call and a network request is vast for even modern networks.

This is true when you have 1 microservice. When you have dozens of them waterfalling requests through each other it starts adding up really fast.
