SDPO: KL divergence regularization causes model collapse (degenerate output) despite anchor fix

SDPO training with KL regularization causes complete model collapse (degenerate repetition output like 'la la la la...') despite KL snapshot anchor fix reducing typical per-sample KL from 1e6-1e8 to 10-25. Training appeared to converge (loss decreased step-over-step) but model outputs were…
