OSM is a very large community with much accumulated knowledge and skill - it's bound to be quite conservative, and for good reason. The challenge is to allow experimental innovations to breathe without disrupting the community. We'll never be able to organise a vote (ha!) to switch to loomio all at once. But if we decide Loomio is worth trying, maybe we can experimentally agree to use it to negotiate some small tagging subproject, in a particular tag namespace. (indoor tagging might be a good example?) Then inch by inch we see what works.
