That is a artifact of implementation. Monolithic operating systems with tons of shared services expose lots to their tenants. Austere hypervisors, the ones with small API surface areas, basically implement a microkernel interface yet both expose significantly more surface area and offer a significantly worse guest experience than microkernels. That is why high security systems designed for multi-level security for shared tenants that need to protect against state actors use microkernels instead of hypervisors.
