If you turn every function into a microservice, then you can have hundreds of microservices. I still don't see the benefits though.

Given where this is going, couldn't we just skip a couple iterations of the hype cycle, and simply port BEAM runtime to work directly on machine clusters instead of machine code? This way we'll jump straight to one actor = one microservice = one VM.

Isn't that serverless, ie. AWS Lambda?

You would also need an orchestrating layer on top of it.
