This is true. However, a muted track is filled with data. Also, a blank track with a plugin still loaded may well utilize the same cpu power.
I think of it like an analog console. When you mute a channel on an analog console, the signal is still there and metering, still being EQ'ed, and still processing through the inserts. Disabling a track in a DAW is more like unplugging the xlr from the console. That channels is now dormant
