Objective-Aligned Direct Answer SFT for Robust Multi-Frame Medical VQA

Multi-frame medical VQA appears to reward increasingly complex adaptation: controller-style inference, localization-aware reranking, static hard-negative mixing, and staged continuation all appear plausible from first principles. We test a simpler competing hypothesis on MedFrameQA: methods that remain tightly aligned with the benchmark's final answer objective should be the strongest \emph{robust} adaptation family once evaluation is controlled across fixed splits, matched budgets, repeated seeds, and calibration.
