If this is a port of Sinatra that is an option to make a very small concise webservice. You can choose to do seperation, but if you want something very simple and compact a single file can be easier. We have a Sinatra app that has the model,view,controller, and tests in a single file that is less than 250 LOC. It would be more obfuscated to have 5 files of less than 50 LOC each (Some with as little as 4 lines).

If it doesn't provide any option for separation that is bad, but for micro services it can be really nice.

For sure. I'm just using XML literals in the example because it looks cool. But I'm also using this for a client job, and it's producing JSON.

It's not nearly as powerful as the real Sinatra, but it saves me the shenanigans of warbling Sinatra apps for servlet deployment.
