I think it does. If minibuffer-follows-selected-frame is nil, when we
return to a frame on which a minibuffer has been opened, the minibuffer
will still be there, so there is no need to select a different window.
If m-f-s-frame is t, and we have moved away from the frame on which a
minibuffer was opened, that minibuffer will have moved to the new frame.
It will either be terminated before we return to the original frame (in
which case we select a window different from the now invalid
mini-window), or the minibuffer returns to the original frame when we
switch back.
The critical criterion is whether there's a valid minibuffer in the
mini-window of the frame we switch to. It doesn't really matter whether
that minibuffer has moved between frames, or was always there. So,
maybe this process is independent of minibuffer-follow-selected-frame.
But I think it works.
