I don't think so. It'd/'ll be a nice feature, and be listed as such. But it's not one of their primary selling points or marketing targets. Federation will be niche. Most useful in the FOSS space that pays little anyway.
I think you missed the point where 63 universities are using gitlab and actively interested in having federation. And that's just in France.

They may advertise it, but they’d be working on it themselves if they thought it would bring in serious revenue.
I encourage you to actually read the link before making such a statement.

GitLab, Inc is a business and it’s not run by idiots. If federation was going to make them a bunch of money, they’d put a team on it. Relying on an outside group to execute your business goals is terrible management. It’s clear federation is not one of their business goals.
