In my opinion, the value of a well architected micro service is to figure out how to optimize and leverage the capabilities of the underlying storage engine, while presenting a simple performant and correct API to consumers, while not requiring those consumers to understand the underlying details of the datastore.

I am not talking about the customers. Of course they are not supposed to understand it. I am talking about the system design. And microservices do not solve problems in most companies, just create new ones. Distributed systems did not magically become simpler to reason about just because there is Docker.
