Just once the condition that’s making use selected speed has gone. I don’t fly to places with much ATC speed control so I’ve never had to use selected because managed was too fast, that’s a hypothetical example of when I’d use it. As for getting close to the bricks, I’ve had occasion when a strong wind at 2000’ has had GS mini giving a high speed target. In this case I’d go back to managed once out of the worst of the wind. That said, the function is there for good reason, it protects against a dramatic loss of energy when moving through shear layers, so I very rarely use selected for long.
