You are wrong. slots is the mechanism whereby "different versions of a
single package can coexist on a system".  "Setting a choice" I assume
means your eselect-style choices.   For example, you can eselect a
pager, which has nothing do do with slots.  Or you can eselect the
system python, which does (indirectly) have to do with slots.  But
eselect and slots are not the same.
