The complexity is still somewhere. You can structure your monolith in a way that you can read each module's code in ~15 minutes. Each module also can be developed and tested in isolation.
However, if the organization is not capable of structuring the monolith, why should it be successful with microservices?
Such organization may lead to sharing data stores and custom libraries between microservices and that's when the real fun begins. Maybe even trying to deploy all of the services atomically to not worry about API compatibility.
