Jim,
Using mod_alias or mod_rewrite with [R] is functionally equivalent, yes.
The former is simpler and easier to maintain, of course.
Note that you can use RedirectMatch if you need PCRE support and/or
captured expressions.

So just to make sure I have this correct: the main production server has a
couple pages of rewrites for old URLs and home pages that moved servers or
changed path. And changing the baseURL with a Redirect directive in a
vhost instead of mod_rewrite will not break any of that?

Agree, much better than all that rewrite gymnastics.

No, I assure you, ,mod_rewrite is not needed here.
To enforce a canonical hostname, use the Redirect directive and separate
vhost. To have all requests handled by a php routing script, use
FallbackResource /path/to/file.php

The sites I am trying to model are drupal-based. We aren't dealing with
plain static HTML or PHP sites. We have the main server, which this test
server is trying to mirror, and a secondary project server which exists to
give project people limited root access to update their own code. The

You are also grossly abusing mod_rewrite for this. It isn't needed at all.
Use FallbackResource, Redirect, and separate vhosts, as Igor mentioned.

We have a test server, with test sites that are in two different branches
of development, but essentially the same base content. They live at
/x/y/z/testsite and /x/y/z/test-site. We have other sites such as wikis
and one-offs which need to stay online on our production server, and I have
