gRPC, GraphQL, and message queues/event stores are not microservices.

Right, and noone said it was. Instead, what the author said is these technologies help you keep headcounts small, which helps you avoiding the multi-team (and thus microservices) necessity.

Distributed means a registry like npmjs, ...

That would mean blockchains / Starlink / cell service / the us postal service aren't distributed systems. I would look up the definition of distributed system again. Distrubuted systems (even distributed computing) are so much older than package registries.
