I have noticed this as well if there if you are using a NVMe boot drive with no microsd plugged in. The microsd itself can be completely blank the last time I tested it and the load average went back to 0 consistently. I use a microsd to load my NVMe XFS root filesystem now so I can not ensure that is still the same outcome/reason however it was consistent in my original testing. This is my current load for example:
15:04:47 up 1:18, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
