Didn't we get to the point where we realized that microservices cause too much trouble down the road?

That's a largely ignorant opinion to have. Like any architecture, microservices have clear advantages and tradeoffs. It makes no sense to throw vague blanket statements at an architure style because you assume it "causes trouble", particularly when you know nothing about requirements or constraints and all architectures are far from bullet proof.

For sure. There are some systems I would hate to build as a monolith and some systems I would hate not to. There's a good reason microservices showed up.
