He doesn't have a point.
Loki was weaponless in his 'fight' with Hulk.
Do you honestly think Loki would have fared any better against Thor in a similar situation?
You don't think with Thor's demonstrated might he couldn't have face planted Loki in the ground similar to the Hulk who Thor managed to roughly match in strength for a period of time?
As for Thor holding back of course he was, and when he decided to end the fight he did.
I doubt he was trying to destroy Loki either as demonstrated in their previous fight in Thor even with a planet, Jotunehiem, on the line Thor still was willingly trying to not fight his brother and even stopped fighting to help him up from the Bi-Frost bridge when he thought he was in trouble. He even let Loki hit him in the face with Odin's spear and he wouldn't fight him.
He even tried to save him at the end by grabbing hold of the spear so Loki wouldn't fall into the void.
So yeah I think Thor holds back his full might against Loki cause he doesn't really want his brother.
