While I understand that this question is of some interest this is just
not something to be discussed here. Questions about Red Hat's product
policies and features of  future RHEL releases or updates need to go
through the official channels.

I can only comment on the technical properties on the already released
versions:

The current RHEL 7.5 rpm does not support boolean dependencies.
The current RHEL 7.5 yum does not support boolean dependencies.
Just adding weak dependency tags to rpm is not enough to change that.

You can draw your own conclusions from that. If you want some official
statement from Red Hat please open a support case or ask your TAM.
