Man thank you for sticking it out with me. My problem was that I was dragging the keyframe, not the outpoint for the nested comp, so yes, the layer was disappearing before it had a chance to loop. I solved it a different way, but I'm glad to know this way -- I'm still trying to get my head wrapped around how this program "thinks".

I believed (without even knowing it) that if I dragged the nested composition out from 3 seconds to 20 seconds that I would be forcing it into slo-mo, playing at 3/20th the normal speed. Why would I think that? Who knows!
