Bull.

The players action had nothing to do with his scoring on the play. You don't take points off the board because the player is a no class jerk.

You penalize him so as to discourage future repeats of similar conduct.

Whatever you say. You may not like the taunting rule, but it's still the rule.

Here's what the NCAA Football Rule Book says:

"If a player makes a taunting gesture to an opponent on the way to scoring a touchdown, the flag would nullify the score and penalize the offending team 15 yards from the spot of the foul."
