Thought touched off by mention of microservices:

Many (most?) “best practices” are truly •are• best-we-currently-have for a •specific problem• or situation — “in case of X, try Y” — but the X gets dropped and people just hear “always do Y.”

Like microservices, for example: can help address certain incarnations of Conway’s Law; pretty bad for a lot of other things.
