> The latter sounds like it would be iterative in exactly the same way

I think you're comparing different things.

The alternative to "create a new service" is "refactor existing service iteratively".

The alternative to "slowly migrate" is ... nothing. You don't need to do this if you refactor the existing service (incrementally).

If the service has state (like DB), then this "slowly migrate" usually becomes crazy complex.
