I believe if the grid is loaded, everything on it will work:

After setting an npc active is despawning sufficient to disable it again

Despawned NPC should not care about any active flag anymore right

Yes, however you should really try not to use set active unless it is absolutely necessary. In a perfect world, it should only be players that should activate grids.

Nah, nah, nah. I always preload grids and sets all as active. You're forgetting about the fact that creatures don't roam when they're not active. Imagine the rares in the world that walk using waypoints. They'll always stay in the same place if players aren't near. It's much better if they actually move constantly.

Not to mention regular NPCs that wander, like the wandering guards in OG

This is purely cosmetic and should not be set to active lol

It's functional, not cosmetic, and also how it works on blizzards servers. It's not like it's performance heavy and needs a beast of a computer to do.
