IIUC, --clean sources only the default.vim script but not your vimrc
and no plugins, not even the standard matchparen.vim plugin.
OTOH, setting loaded_matchparen _disables_ further loading of that
plugin. (It makes the plugin believe that it is already loaded.)
To have the defaults.vim plus paren matching but nothing else, use
vim --clean -c 'runtime plugin/matchparen.vim'
