Problem is, most organizations don’t know how to properly architect for and integrate microservice architectures into their environments and work process.

Which is exactly the same thing said about OOP, or structured programming, or Agile, or a number of other paradigms. Organizations aren't doing it right, but it works if it's "properly architected". Yet, this "proper architecture" doesn't seem to exist anywhere in the real world.

In fact, I've argued before that if OOP is fundamentally about objects ending messages to each other, then microarchitectures are just an approach to OOP where the communication channel is over network sockets.

If you understand things like encapsulation and message passing, then the difference doesn't come down to microarchitecture vs monolith. It's self-contained components vs not, and the method of passing messages is only important from a feasibility and performance standpoint.
