How many monolithic 1,000,000+ line code basis have you navigated.
1) That's true of both. 2) That can be true or false of both. 3) That's covered by tooling?

Well your caveat is literally the problem this post is discussing. They usually aren't.
1) You have tooling.
2) Probably also shared conventions and libraries.
3) Everything is easy to find and run on single dev machine.
And no, monoliths almost never end up that way as long as they're internally modular. Services are just modules with less sharing and more overhead.
