Which of the following mechanisms is useful for removal of autoreactive T-cells by the immune system?

The principle of cellular compartmentalization and cell cycle explains that SNARE-mediated trafficking, Hayflick limit, P53 and cyclin regulation control proliferation. Hence clonal selection fits best because it aligns with membrane trafficking and cell cycle control, as documented in authoritative sources on cell biology.

Ref: Alberts et al., Molecular Biology of the Cell, 6th Edition, Chapter 10, Membrane Structure and Transport, discusses SNARE proteins, vesicle trafficking, ER, Golgi, endosome membranes and selective transport providing compartmentalization foundation.
