I would really like it to be dependency not an option (+ I think
that ideally it should be checked at runtime, IOW we should be
checking from cpufreq-dt driver if the thermal support is enabled
before enabling boost support).
I don't think boost has any dependency on thermal support. Yeah, it
may be true for your platform but we can't force it. People might have
different algorithms to control boost modes, thermal is just one
option they may look at. For few, enabling boost may not be a thermal
issue, but power. So, they want to allow it only when they want, but
that wouldn't burn their chip.

So, a platform can choose how it wants to have it. :)
