Your friend is right. Why would you use anything other than a /32 bit mask
on a virtual interface?
You are not going to route using the loopback addres
I've seen ISP's assign /24's and /25's to loopbacks on dial boxes in order
to get the dial pools into the IGP. This is versus static routing them and
pushing them into the IGP via redistribution (into NSSA OSPF or ISIS
areas). I'm not pro either approach and prefer direct injects to BGP, but
you could also do a FLRP or as known in the industry as a Full Loopback
Reverse Path

outside of lab exercises, one might consider using /24's or other full
subnets for purposes of NAT pool addresses.
that's about all I can think of.
