There is no function to make all fonts bold like in Office applications.

In the design industry, it is generally not used to select a font that does not have Bold in its family and use software functions to thicken lines and thicken letters. This is because the design quality deteriorates due to the thickness that the font creator did not expect, and the shape of the character is lost due to the lack of space between characters.

This is an example of using bold on the software (MS WORD) for characters that do not have bold in the font family. The letters on the leather are crushed. (This is an example, and not all fonts and characters are crushed in the same way.)

DaVinci Resolve is software that is also used in movies and commercials. For this reason, it may be better to understand that we do not have a function to make any font bold, which would result in poorly designed characters.
