Yep, that's right.  Enabling an NCP involves reading in all the NCU data and
then starting the state machine for each NCU and running the condition checks. 
There's also time for assigning DHCP/static addresses. 

In contrast, when an object is destroyed, it only needs to be removed from
nwamd representation.  Destroying objects with nwamcfg is synchronous with
removing the object from the config files, but is asynchronously removed from
nwamd (similar to nwamadm commands).
