I think he explicitly meant "imply", which is a rather recent addition
to Kconfig [1]:

===============
- weak reverse dependencies: "imply" <symbol> ["if" <expr>]
  This is similar to "select" as it enforces a lower limit on another
  symbol except that the "implied" symbol's value may still be set to n
  from a direct dependency or with a visible prompt.
