I think that "loupe" here is a reference to a closer view called 'loupe' in
Lightroom. Just like looking at your slide on your light box. Not an actual
loupe. Just a term brought from traditional photography, like  film strip or
unsharp masking or dodging and burning etc. For Ken of course there are
magnifiers both software and actual loupes that can be used on the LCD
preview on some cameras as you noted.
