I found some help.
Basically I think Start9 is dumb because when Core is running, there is not an Install button on Knots. When Core is uninstalled, the Install button for Knots magically appears.
My gripe is why couldn’t Start9 program their user interface such that Knots had an inactive, greyed out Install button with a message explaining how to activate the Install button and instructions on how to uninstall conflicting software implementations.
Also, there is not an uninstall button on the main “page” for Core on Start9. Uninstall is buried under the Actions menu. I had, in my mind, encoded all of the menus as “shit I don’t know shit about” so I didn’t look through any of them. I assumed that the devs would have put an uninstall button somewhere near the bottom.
Is your lighting node still running after the switch?
I would answer you if I knew how but I don’t know what exactly that means.
You said you were running a lightning node and after switching you may want to check it.

Yes. I know that, functionally, I have a lightning node that I was able to get running with the help of friends. Mind you I was confused the entire time this was being set up. I have multiple programs downloaded onto the Start9 that, to me, seem connected to Lightning. I don’t know which of those things is the lightning node.
Also, I don’t know how to interpret “running”. All I know is right now Knots is doing shit and several programs on my Start9 have yellow triangles with an exclamation point inside of them and they all say “Running…” but I don’t know if that means “fully operational and set up” which would be my definition of “running”. I don’t understand how my lightning node could possibly be running if Knots isn’t even synced yet.
All of this confuses me.
