Because, muted tracks are ALWAYS re-instated when a song is opened. I play live basslines and need the bass to be silent for pretyy much all tunes. Now, as I haven't yet found a way (easy/quick way without creating user styles and special setups) to actually delete a R/T part, and as the saved song does not save the mute/unmute status (which would also apply to guitar tracks I use) then really live mode and the conductor are pretty useless imo.

It's not really acceptable when playing live to have to go back in to BIAB and mute parts before every song starts!

I was thinking about trying it, but these "omissions" from the program mean it just won't work.
