Hm, this portion of Kconfig is a trap in a way indeed - on the other hand it is also a useful tool and the simplistic approach to disallow select altogether is a step backwards. IIRC either Vegard or Steve has come up with a patch series that improved Kconfig to warn about problem selects while still allowing the simple ones. That would deflect most of the bad uses while still allowing the good uses. Not sure what happened to that series.
