There are reasons as to why it would make sense to fire Zac now and roll with Simmons as an interim - even if you don't think that Simmons is HC material(not long ago he received glowing endorsements from fans). You could ask Simmons to install, or emphasize, certain styles as he saw fit. You could do this for roster evaluation purposes - or if you had an idea as to what sort of schemes your HC hire of the future might like to run, you could ask him to emphasize vanilla versions of those schemes/concepts.
Taylor may view the rest of the year as a chance to keep building upon his system and as a way to legitimize his job title. Simmons at HC may yield more meaningful practice if that system is indeed going to be replaced soon.
If the players really have tuned him out, there's that as well. The rest of the year should be about practice and development.
