I only have BetterLoot adjusting the contents of barrels. Other than that, all crates and lootables are disabled. In the config file, I have the scrap multiplier set to 3. This multiplier is not being applied to the containers which are disabled. To my understanding, this is not how it should be working. 

To my understanding , if i disable loot in any container(s)  , those containers are disabled and no settings should effect it,

Yes, for a custom loot table, but not for the scrap multiplier which is stored in the configuration and not in the data.

I have been thinking about this too

And so is the Loot multiplier and the Rarity settings but if the container is disabled it should not affect it , if it does what is the point in disabling the container ? , disabling it from what ?

I think what @roloohno means is, that it whould be nice to have a feature in the plugin. Where you can set the multiplier on scrap to effect all loot.
That why you can setup custom loot for barrels, and leave the rest "Vanilla" with only a multiplier on scrap. I really want a feature like that as well
