Heavy weapon versus skilled swordsmen

The + POA for heavy weapon does not count against skilled swordsmen. What about the 'also cancels enemy armour POA'. The 'also' is in the following sentence. Do the heavy weapon users lose this advantage too?

no, the Hvy Wpn still cancels enemy heavier armour.

Armoured skilled swordsmen would be on a +1 POA due to their skilled swordsmen status. No +1 for their extra armour. But you will get more un/protected Hvy Wpn blokes, twice as many?
