Counterpoint: cats meow mostly just to communicate with humans. They don't meow between themselves, typically.
So I'd argue they already are
That's a myth sort of. Cats use a mix of meows, scents and postures to communicate. The quantity of which type is used depends on the situation and circumstances.
Not every cat is talkative yes, but I think that if they could talk, they'll either beg for food or insult you as these two are the only important situations in which they would deign it worth the hassle.
