I am confused... Using an ldap server as a backend for samba4 is not

Not only not recommended, it will not work and is not supported.
We are primarily a linux shop. We have an ldap database we use
for authentication. I can't use that anymore if I switch to samba4?
Nope.
Active Directory provides an LDAP service (DSA) but Active Directory is
not LDAP. It has very specific provisioning, security, and schema
rules.
Not that if your schema is compatible it can be loaded in the AD LDAP,
but in anycase you'll have to migrate your data into the AD database and
cope with the partitioning of it.
