When I'm done with all this stuff, do I need to convert my backgrounds to sub-stacks?
No, substacks are a different thing. Backgrounds are backgrounds, just like in HC, only they have additional behaviors in Rev, so they are also called "groups". The distinction is subtle, and use of the terms "group" and "background" need to vary depending on the placement of the groups. But for your imported stacks, continue to refer to them as backgrounds, and use them as you always have. Your stacks should act just as they do in HC and your scripts should work the same. You don't need to do anything different for now (but later, when you discover the power of groups, you will use them more fully and change your terminology.)

You never cease to amaze me, Jacque. Generous, patient and knowledgeable beyond all expectation.
Needless to say, your comments are very helpful. Thanks.
I might add -- I'm getting too old for this, and it isn't my hobby, and I have too many other things I must do. It is my sincere wish that I will never explore the possibilities of Rev. I just want my stacks and reports to work, and not to become dangerously obsolete. I'll add a <g> to indicate the absence of malice, but I am not being ironic.
Cheers,
