There are many things that happen at loading screens, not just loading addons. Firstly, addons are only loaded at the first loading screen you see when you log in. Addon code cannot run at any other loading screen. That statement aside, the game has to manage connecting to different world/instance servers and loading the zone geometry and textures into video memory before even placing you in it. All that takes time, and depending on your computer specs and internet connection, can take more than a few seconds.
