CPU is generally used in a threaded manner so unless the VMs are doing work, your CPU remains idle.
Disk space can be dynamic as well and affords you the option to shrink or increase as needed.

more available resources in a flexible environment to scale up or scale down based on demand instead of having multiple hardware components sitting idle.
