In a nutshell, its WAI. GK regains the Taunt immediately (when he has protection under JMK) after being dispelled, but before the buff immunity of Fracture/Isolate is applied. Bossk and Old Ben have Taunts which work the same way, and it is by design.

Maybe by design, however it is a bad one that could easily be fixed with a small change in fractures order of operations.
Apply the buff immunity of fracture before dispelling buffs. "Fixed" and less questions asked.

“Bad” is a point of view. I think it works logically when it’s understood.

Working logically? From your point of view.
Logically to me would be
Apply buff immunity
Dispel buffs
Apply damage
Remove tm.
I understand the mechanics of it (I was one of the first to explain why old Ben kept taunting when fractured)
Still think it is bad design to leave it.
I agree bad is a point of view.
There are many mechanics that are "bad" and not consistent that they haven't changed (and I doubt they ever will)
I would simply change it so the question stops coming up
It’s order of operations. Moves like Fracture and Isolate Dispel Buffs, then inflict the respective debuff. But as soon as a Tank under JMK loses Taunt, they immediately regain it if they have Protection. Then the debuff goes in place.
It’s like that for most dispel+debuffs. Unfortuate here, but if it was the other way around Tenacity Up would resist all the Buff Immunity from B2 before it was dispelled.

That is obvious.

It's been working that way with Old Ben's taunt zeta since a looong time
