Red Hat did introduce modules ("streams") with RHEL 8 and had them for "everything". Alas, the dnf module, while nice idea was less than perfectly implemented and "everyone" had the opposite-of-like towards it.

With RHEL 9 they have cut modules to bare minimum, which seems currently to be 0. You might see modules in Stream 9 before RHEL 9 gets any, but I'd guess that to be in the future.
