If the camera is not showing the RAW, or a good version of it, but only a lousy small jpg for the camera screen, how am I able to zoom in all the way and see tiny details, as if the whole image were being used?

Whatever you're seeing is not RAW, but the JPG thumbnail embedded with the RAW with all the in-camera JPG settings.

I agree with Bob here. You think you are zooming all the way in, but in reality you aren't. You are still dealing with a low resolution JPG. Put it on the computer and you'll see things differently.
