Do they only block 127.0.0.1? If this truly is a security improvement I would like to see an explanation why they don't block 127.0.0.0/8 instead.

No, they blocked (now reverted) a specific list of domains which are presently known to resolve to 127.0.0.1. The actual IP address isn't used, it's a DNS block.
