If, as you say, it will eventually replace eselect, there is no more

Should be less, since you already have portage installed but not
necessarily eselect-whatever.
I didn't even know eselect-whatever was even an option until this
post... It's not something I've ever used.
It does (at least to me) make sense for the package manager to enforce
these selections rather than some optional tool though.
what are they going to do about "eselect kernel set ..." then?
It's bad enough depclean deleting the active kernel if you don't watch
out, without something deciding to install a non-existent kernel and
deleting the live one :-)
