Having service A write to a table and service B read from that table in the same database is a perfectly suitable architecture for many applications.

At that point it's just an argument about "what is a service"? But people typically find that using the database as an API ends up with the services so coupled that they might as well be one even if they technically run as different binaries.

Exactly. We’re talking about software architecture for startups here. Best to keep it simple.
