Default [IBC] Post Chop Maple Buds

I recently did a trunk chop on a maple. There are several buds 2" above
the bud that will be the eventual leader.

2 questions:

1) Should I chop off the remaining trunk that's above the eventual new
leader?

2) If not, should I snub out the buds above the eventual leader now, or
temporarily keep them til next year?

Thanks,

Jim
