am I overlooking something?
Probably. Did you consider these points?
Although you are repaying yourself, you also are committing 401 money to a loan that you could have invested elsewhere, it isn't "free money" at all b/c you are missing out on that investment income.
You are taking out money you didn't pay tax on, and repaying with money that is after-tax.
If you lose your job the full amount of the loan is due immediately.
