This kind of mindset exists but is not a consensus. And even if it became consensus, it would still take many, many years for most developers to stop using ssh forwarding with localhost listeners in a security reliant way.
Also, the loopback is used as a networking interconnect or guest->host channel for sandboxed containers and VMs, so it's security sensitive in this way.
