Can a defender cancel a retreat from a trench when the attacker's card negated the trench?

Several experienced players agree that a trench-negating card removes the trench option.

No, not by the trench. A card that negates trench effects for the combat also removes the trench-based option to cancel a retreat. Terrain such as forest or mountain still allows it. Note that the Allied Royal Tank Corps card removes only the trench column shifts, not the retreat option.
