Now that we have tools like docker-compose, would it not be possible to spin up all the dependency apps in a single command, so as to preserve the character of a monolithic app?

Sure, and I have done just so. But you usually want kibana on a separate host for HA reasons as well as licensing details. You pay for the ES nodes, but not the kibana nodes. So you want the ES nodes only doing ES workloads.
