I disagree (obviously) but let's work through it.

I'm not sure what you mean by "proxy" here. The card says it can't be lost to Bad Stuff; that seems pretty clear to me.

Yes, I would. That would could as "losing" the card.

This essentially creates a scenario where you don't have control of your items.
I don't see the problem. You can't lose the protected card, so you have to lose the other one. That's not a case of "losing control of your Items," it's just how the rule on the card works.

It's the what the rule on the card says. Munchkin is a name of exceptions and this is one of them.
