Is there also a reason that Nest occasionally doesn't remove Taunt in the same Smugglers Event?
Edge case, doesn't even matter (/s).
Maybe Nest is not allowed to remove Taunt during an enemy's bonus turn, another undocumented feature that is working as programmed, nothing to see here, move along. Some people call items like this "bugs", but others would say it is working as coded and therefore nothing is wrong.

Nest Taunt dispell can be resisted. I don't know why but it can happens in every game mode not just smugglers run.
dispel doesn't go through a tenacity / potency check
Normally not, but Nest's is for some reason. I have footage where you can see the taunt not being dispelled and two "Resisted" pop-ups. (One being expose)

The way I understand it is 'can't be evaded' applies to the attack itself and the damage it does. The secondary part of the process is applying or dispelling buffs/debuffs, those still have to go through a tenacity check and can be resisted (unless it specifically says that they cannot be).
The dispell mechanic is in two parts, the top one is the taunt dispell (Which doesn'tsay unresistable), the bottom is the defensive buff dispell (Which does)
I know that swgoh.gg mechanics aren't 100% but it looks to be missing the "Effect is unresistable" tag for the taunt dispell.
I think it's missing it because they specifically point out above that "Where an active effect does not have tag undispellable_taunt" although I'm not sure who has an undispellable taunt other than GAS.
I guess Bossk could appear to have this happen if he has the zeta on his unique as the taunt could simply just pop back on.
Yeah I did log a bug report on Answers HQ, but I couldn't get much traction on it because the video I used for the initial post was a Padme comp which isn't the best to show it because GK regains taunt all the time anyway.

i doubt anyone can deny the other two videos you posted here

GAS has an indispensable taunt, that’s all I can think of at the moment.

Without more details it would be hard to say ehats going on. There are cases where taunts reapply, or maybe nest missed.
Well I wasn't asking for an explanation, but since you bring it up, you already missed one of the details that I did give:
I've quite clearly seen my Nest hit without dispelling taunt. Doesn't happen a lot, but it happens.
I'm not talking about cases where Nest missed.
That said, I don't really care since I've only seen it happen events, and since I can beat all the events in which she's useful even with taunt surviving an attack, it's not worth it to me to even report it to CG. I only mention it so that the other people who thought they saw that happen to them don't think they're crazy.

It really doesn't change much (if anything) where it really counts anyway, so just accept it and move on.

I've never had Nest fail a dispel since her release, so maybe the full context behind that image might explain it (what squad you were using)
I was reading the .gg wrong
This doesn't read WAI to me

I gave up, and just keep aware of it now.
It doesn't really affect her too much because she can avoid Taunts and is generally used by herself.
You know, that happened to me a couple times. I chalked it up to a dodge I didn’t see, or that I was crazy.

This has to be the most Canon aspect of swgoh. The devs really did a great job programming him just like in the movies.
@Enigmatic_Potato
I asked and have a follow up question for them after sharing your video, but the initial answer I got is that dispell is not resistable.
I thought that was supposed to be the case, but I've quite clearly seen my Nest hit without dispelling taunt. Doesn't happen a lot, but it happens.

This is a bug and has been flagged as such.
Such love
I know.
