I’ve never said taunt is necessary. As Danth mentioned it’s free and might save a bit of mana if you aren’t chain casting 40-60m taunt spells (since DC is borked). It also might be quicker than it takes for the spell to land once you react to the flip. Unslowed that might save someone a second combat round. If it’s a Jugg that might be 340 damage.
That’s why the Church of MacroTaunt is openly inviting new followers. Leave your false taunt gods behind you and learn of this new and better thing! Amen.

I agree taunt is a usable skill. I don't think anybody has stated otherwise.
People are simply vastly overestimating the opportunity cost of a single taunt being wasted. That seems to be their problem with taunt spamming.
Since taunt is unreliable to begin with, you have to assume the first taunt will fail, even when it doesn't. You can't plan around assuming it will succeed.
