Uhm, no.  A deactivated configuration item is considered not to be
present in the configuration at all, which means you cannot reference
that interface anywhere else in the configuration (that would be an
error that prevents you from committing the change).  If you want to
shut down an interface (while keeping it in the configuration), you
need to disable it, and the equivalent of "no shutdown" in that sense
is "delete disable".

Talk about intuitive...
