Does the kit actually say that? It kind of reads like the BI dispel only happens on the ships currently on the field (the language is vague, but I reread it today and it sounds like that's what it means). So the dispel wouldn't apply to reinforcements after the contract is triggered.
Don't get me wrong I'm going to submit a bug report, because I'd like it to work the way it has been, but if we're going by the letter of the law...

I think this is the way it was meant to be. The ability reads
... The first time allies inflict Target Lock 20 times on enemies, dispel Breach Immunity and Chaff from all enemies, then each active enemy, enemies who are call in from Reinforcements, or summoned, are infliced with Breach and Target Lock ...
It does not say that incoming RI's have their Breach Immunity dispelled, which is why no one gets Breach. It seems that it is also erroneously dispelling Chaff so that RI's get Target Locked.
…Except you’re missing the last bit of the description which says that the effects can’t be resisted etc. That implies they should come in with breach, TL, BI and chaff. That’s how it’s always worked in game with other effects which can’t be resisted etc. This just smacks of a cynical attempt to nerf executor right before Leviathan lands. Bug reported.
Immunity has always trumped "can't be resisted."
I know it's how it used to work, but that's not what it says. I don't even disagree that it's an attempt to nerf right before Levi, but it is now WAD where before it wasn't. At least in regards to Breach.
This is true, but in the case of non-reinforcements they’re supposed to have their BI dispelled then inflict Breach. For Reinforcements, because both happen at the same “time” from our perspective, it depends when in the order of actions the gaining Breach vs gaining BI.
I think something similar’s happened before and it got fixed to the past state.
It doesn’t dispel them from later reinforcements, true. But since on reinforce they gain Breach, Target Lock, Breach Immunity, and Chaff, it’s a question of in what order those apply. Previously they’ve gained Breach and TL before the BI and Chaff so they still suffer the debuffs, now they seem to be gaining TL before but Breach after, so they are immune to the Breach when it tries to inflict but not the TL.
Reading just the Kit, it could go either way with how that works, it’s just previously worked one way and now works another. But the initial application definitely should be applying Breach after dispelling BI and isn’t.
