There are plenty of rolling release (russian roulette) distros already - and even two openSUSE flavours (Factory and Tumbleweed). So that wouldn't give openSUSE a unique identity.
Rolling release isn't meant to be "russian roulette"; and neither does Factory ("bleeding edge") count as a production version of continuous delivery. There'd still be increments - e.g., the systemd/sysvinit obsolescence that would be developed *and tested* in a branch (or Factory) before being merged back into the rolling user release once done, or a new sound system, ... And, of course, smaller stuff - say, new version of any given package with no or little cross-dependencies - could be phased in all the time. But there'd be no "everyone jump at once" transitions like "2.4 GB to download; continue?" Providing a stable rolling release would be impressive.
