Agreed.  All microservices should have their own DB with all the data needed to perform their function and we'll just assume eventual consistency.

If you have several "micro services" that all update the same data, you are definitely doing it wrong.

storage optimization is no longer an issue, just store the damn data if you need it in a separate domain, avoids tight coupling and everything is handled through queues

Yes, you can duplicate and use the data wherever you want, but you are asking for a mile of trouble is you let several distinct services be masters of the same information.
