Old Ben Taunt vs Fracture
How is this possible? Old Ben was fractured in the arena but still maintained his taunt. I see what his zeta says but it should still be blocked by fracture. Am I missing something?

Thrawn’s Fracture does these things to the opponent, in this order:
1. Deal special damage four times.
2. Dispel all buffs.
3. Remove 50% turn meter.
4. Inflict Fracture (can’t gain buffs).
With the Devoted Protector zeta, Obi-Wan’s taunt is regained immediately after it expires. That happens after step two in Thrawn’s Fracture. The taunt is reapplied before steps three and four. He has already regained it before the step where Thrawn prevents new buffs.
Since Fracture avoids buffs from getting applied to the character, Taunt should not be. Even if this is WAI, they should consider it a bug for consistency's sake. Or update Thrawn's description "Inflict Fracture (most of the times can’t gain buffs)".
