Does discarding a played Knight with Vincent make you lose Largest Army?

Most posters say yes by analogy with Longest Road, but the FAQ wording is loose and some posters disagree.

Yes, if the discard leaves you with fewer than three played Knights. Largest Army needs three, so dropping below that gives up the card. If another player now has the most with at least three, they take it; on a tie no one holds it until someone has more Knights than every other player. Some players read the Helpers FAQ's "may lose" wording narrowly, so this is contested.
