Summary:
We demonstrate that every Vietoris continuous selection for the hyperspace of at most 3-point subsets implies the existence of a continuous selection for the hyperspace of at most 4-point subsets. However, in general, we do not know if such ``extensions'' are possible for hyperspaces of sets of other cardinalities. In particular, we do not know if the hyperspace of at most 3-point subsets has a continuous selection provided the hyperspace of at most 2-point subsets has a continuous selection.
