that's correct. The first inlet of [select] expects a *single* float (or
symbol). The help patch says: "compare floast and symbol".

The behavior has been like this for ages and won't change. If you don't
like it, use another object. You're probably looking for [relay] from
zexy. You can easily make a vanilla version with [list split], [route]
and [list prepend].
