It seems like Theil (1950) - Sen (1968) estimation of linear models have advantages relative to OLS based on Ohlson and Kim (2015), Review of Accounting Studies 20, 395-435. Is anyone familiar with this estimation?

Is there any compelling reason to choose that (which doesn't generalize easily to multiple regression) over LAD if you're concerned about robustness?
