Hit while backporting / tower aggro - Is this a bug?

Imagine the following scenario:

I am backporting under tower with extremely low HP
The also nearly dead Renekton dives me with his dash (?) for a lethal hit
Since I am in my last ms of my backport, it is not cancelled, and I get to base alive
Since Renekton still hit me, he ate a tower shot and died himself, I got the kill while in the fountain

Is this a bug or intended? I mean, either it counts as a hit and I should be dead, or it should not count as a hit and he should not have gotten tower aggro. What am I missing?

Nah it's not a bug. The last 0.2sec when you go back, your back isn't cancelled even if you receive damage. The Renekton dealt damage to you, you managed to go back but still received damage (his dash damage are really low, so you probably did regen them in base), since he dealt damage, he took tower aggro

It still hit you just wasnt enough to kill, i have killed people in fountain as they finish their back (when low) with Warwick Q

Recalls are not cancelled for the last fraction of a second.
