Sony will happily sell you an A7RV with that feature sometime in the future.
Until then they will also happily sell you a $4500 A9II or a $6500 A1

Paying $2800 for the red focus box was one of the best purchases of my life!

I’m sure this is coming right after the firmware update for lossless compression on an R body.

Sony should consider selling feature licenses like they do for VENICE. At least you would have an incremental upgrade option for features, like closed shutter, s-cinetone, AF upgrades, etc. without having to go with a full body upgrade. In fact they should just consolidate their camera line by selling one or two basic affordable models and allow the customer to purchase specific features. This would drastically reduce costs for Sony.

I'm still surprised that Sony gave the A9 the red/white focus squares via FW just a few months before releasing the A9II....I'm not sure Sony is so generous these days though....
