Seems to me you are talking about a database access layer instead of microservices.
My understanding of microservices is a bunch of loosely connected services that can be changed with minimal impact to the others
Problem with the ideal is in reality this never works as complexity grows the spaghetti code moves to spaghetti infrastructure ( Done a network map of a large k8s / istio deployment lately ? )

The impact would be minimal only if the API of the microservice didn't change. But in the same codebase too, if you have a module whose API doesn't change the changes from refactoring it would likewise be minimal.
