Why is linux a monolithic kernel if microkernel architecture is so much better?

It may be a case of using the right tool for the right job.
If you're going to be using some services only infrequently, then it makes sense to load them as modules when you need them.
If the machine is going to do a certain set of things all the time and not much else (like a firewall) then it makes more sense to compile everything you need in the kernel and not load any modules.
