Supporting EPOLLET reliably looks like a valid use case, so there must be some way to specify "I really want epoll". Whether this is through a second entry point, or through an optional flag to poll, I don't care (providing the flag might be actually more expressive, since it would also allow to specify "I want poll", although I can't see a use case for that).
