Oh I just noticed it still points to real-this-command right? I was
mislead by the docs ;) My thought why `this-command` might have been
a good idea was that people might want to call commands from Elisp like this

(let ((this-command 'my-cmd))
    (call-interactively 'my-cmd))

and then expect the configuration of the minibuffer applied by Selectrum 
to apply. To make this work with real-this-command they would need to 
bind that but it is discouraged I think? This is mostly a consideration 
about what might happen in user code later.
