But in this case the selection is consistent with the rankings posted here. Would it be also possible for for example to select Eitberger or any other competitor who is lower in the ranking list?

Yes, as long as the athlete met the minimum standards of the FIL

Yes, the qualification criteria clearly state that the quota places are allocated to the NOC, not an athlete (https://www.fil-luge.org/cdn/uploads/beijing-2022-qualification-system-luge-v3-0-1.pdf)

Netherlands will decline, so I assume Ireland is in?

No, they are in a big tie where the tie-breaker is highest single result.  New Zealand who be first but I doubt Cox has met the minimum standards, and then Bulgaria, then Ireland.

Damn, FIL is quick. I assume the quota came from GB.

They weren’t even supposed to “inform NOCs/NFs of their allocated quota places” until Jan. 11 (tomorrow). 
 

Also, if  got a second men’s quota, can it be assumed that  either accepted or passed on a quota?

I can't see Moldova declining. So perhaps there were other declines as well or maybe another winter IF making up their own rules

Some athletes could also have lost a quota from failure to satisfy the additional eligibility requirements, but I don’t have the time to check that for each athlete.
