Description

The current behavior of select is to get either a baseline or it's conjugate if it exists in the data. For example, if you ask for (67, 68) and (68, 67) is the conjugation that exists in the data, select will return (68, 67). It seems like we might want at least a flag to have select return the conjugation that was asked for.

Research direction

Start by locating the Python implementation of select and any tests covering conjugate matching; read the current baseline/conjugate selection behavior first. The issue is done when an explicit option can preserve the requested conjugation and tests cover both the existing default and the requested-orientation behavior.
