It applies to liquid lines as well. You slope the line to the point it is supposed to drain to.

We've got what a pocket is.
Adding an expansion loop does not necessarily mean creating a pocket, but if you can't flat turn a line out of the rack there will be a pocket (i.e. if you're trying to loop a line sandwiched between other lines, you got to go up and over more than likely).
Why would a P&ID declare "no loop"? I have to guess... maybe because the line is very sensitive to pressure drop or a turn might separate a mixed flow?
I've only seen "no loop" on P&IDs produced by a ChemE "process engineer." I haven't seen such a note by a M.E.
