It's an operating system function, like all the others.
select() belongs in os for the same reason that we don't
import chdir, import wait, import fork, etc. etc.

It's not an earth-shattering thing; i'm just pretty sure
most people look for os.select() first and wonder why it's
missing before discovering select.select().
