Hi,
let me jump in here...
a large +1 from me to only keep the select by rectangle tool. I never
use select by point.

Users might be used to the select single feature tool and miss it.
The tools have the same behavior so it will be no change to how the user
does selecting. Most will not even see the change.
While it's possible for somebody to get used to new interaction designs
it's an effort and it's not where you want to spend your time worrying.
Let me worry about where I spend my time. I'm a big boy :)
Second - and more important - The selection tools are already collapsed
and an additional button there is only shown on demand and not always.
Therefore the visual clutter impact is minimal.
It's not visual clutter in the sense of having them all in a row on the
toolbar. That isn't the issue. The issue is having two tools which do
the same thing when we can merge into one. Consider the zoom tool, we
don't have a "zoom on click" and a "zoom to area" tool, we have one tool
for both jobs.
The select tool in the composer also is dual action in this sense so it
makes sense to have one tool in the canvas that is the same.
I would rather spend
the effort on removing / collapsing buttons on the UI which are always
visible but hardly ever used than tools which may be redundant but are
only a slight annoyance.
The slight annoyances build up, hence why pruning like this is a good idea.
