Who came up with this rule of thumb? Currently menuconfig makes it a very difficult job to undo a select. Homework: try to do "make allmodconfig" and then set CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n You will be hit by CONFIG_FW_LOADER that is 'selected' by many instances - and then it becomes very difficult. So until menuconfig has better support for undoing select the rule of thumb outlined by Adrian is true.
