When you need an ESB, you can add one to the mix, but it still doesn't mean that you should use it for everything, even if it's not needed.

I agree with that, I'm just pointing out that ESB is a mainstay of SOA but not microservices. The idea that SOA and microservices is the same is a common misconception borne from the idea that SOA is a generic pattern rather than a specific architectural philosophy.
