I'm not aware of such nuanced definitions. For me a microservice is a one endpoint service, designed to do one task, with full introspection, and deployed on the "cloud". As fair as I know, I can orchestrate them with monoliths and they still microservices.. or where you draw the line between services and microservices? The size of the service itself or with whom it interacts?

There is no One True Definition™, but I think most people understand "microservices" as "an application where splitting the functionality up in small services is core of the architecture", or something along those lines.

"We split off 2 things in to small services because it made sense" is rather different. I mean, I don't really care if you call this 'microservices" I guess, but it is different, right?
