Both systems that I've upgraded to 1.2, I got this message when trying to remove python-3.4:
[root@wolfie 73% etc]# emerge -C =dev-lang/python-3.4*
* This action can remove important packages! In order to be safer, use
* `emerge -pv --depclean <atom>` to check for reverse dependencies before

>>> These are the packages that would be unmerged:
* Not unmerging package dev-lang/python-3.4.6-r1 since there is no valid
* reason for Portage to unmerge currently used Python interpreter.
>>> No packages selected for removal by unmerge
I don't recall exactly what I did the last time (it was some time ago), but today I tried first to use 'eselect python set'. This removed the '(fallback)' status for python3.6, but did not get rid of the above message. I ended up using 'eselect python edit' and entering a '-' before python3.4. This has happened to me twice now, which suggests it's not something weird that I did.
