Citation needed. My understanding is that the only computers that were built this way were super computers using ecl logic. One of the key features of cmos logic was that is was much lower power when nothing was being done. Now admittedly DOS and I think windows95 liked to use busy waits and this does not help matters. But I still think the system got hotter under heavy load. Now I wish I still had an old pentium box around so I could measure power draw with dos and prime95. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emitter-coupled_logic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emitter-coupled_logic
