Capping speed is going to be increased dramatically with the Clan updates that are coming soon, plus the Skill Plot Bonus is going to be increased to a 50% bonus for gathering resources. At this point, I think updating Citadels to have monthly capping, rather than weekly, would be unnecessary because of those changes.
Also, that would require an enormous amount of work on the Citadel's structure, making removal of the Citadel entirely be a better option.
If you haven't seen the January Content Showcase video, Mod Shauny showed off all of the new updates that are in the works for Clans: https://youtu.be/aG-kago5DOM?t=1h17s

I think that you dont lose fealty if you dont enter the citadel at all
obviously you cant claim the fealty bonus since that would require you to enter the citadel to claim it.

That's correct, and I have a great example for this.
About 3 years ago, I had membership on my alternate account for a bit and used it to cap in our Citadel. That account did achieve a Fealty rank of 3, but once it became F2P, I could not continue to enter the Citadel to cap. Fast forward to the free weekend Jagex held last year for the release of Menaphos, I took advantage of this time to get an extra Citadel cap in from my alt.
When I entered the Citadel, roughly
two years
after the last time that account had been in there,
I got the game message stating that my Fealty rank had dropped to 2
.
EDIT: I came back to this because I realized what I said was incorrect. (The free weekend was quite awhile ago now, so plenty of time to forget
) After two years of not entering the Citadel, since I had capped during the week the last time I entered, I had maintained Fealty 3 on my alternate account despite not visiting the Citadel for about two years.
This is because I had capped during the week the last time I visited the Citadel, and my next Citadel entry factored in my visit/cap from two years ago because it was the last visit I had. If I had visited the Citadel and not gathered enough resources to maintain fealty during the previous visit, then my Fealty rank would have dropped to 2.

When you have to work 10 hrs a day, your clan has T7 citadel, and you have to cap....
-dies-
Yes, make it monthly please or make a money sink and let us give you geepees to buy bypass capping.
I can manage my clan's T7 Citadel upkeep by myself while utilizing the Avatars' caps as well as my own. Mandatory Citadel work is a personal choice; it's not a requirement to have multiple people in a clan capping to maintain it.
Once the Clan Updates (that I shared a video for in my first post on this thread) are live, capping will be much faster. Plus, you can always opt for buying Citadel Boosters from the Solomon's General Store for RuneCoins through Bonds or buying RuneCoins for real money, so there is already a paid option to increase capping speed.
If you don't have time to cap, don't. Its completely optional.
If your clan enforces mandatory capping, then that's a different situation entirely.
