Plainly wrong in my experience. The rabbit ears plug into the converter
box, the converter box plugs into the ancient VCR (using the L1 inputs
in my case) and the VCR plugs into the television set like always. The
newly recorded tapes are clearer than ever before.

So, how do I set the VCR to record channel 4 from 7PM to 8PM, then
switch to channel 11 from 10:30 to Midnight? As far as I know, the
converter will not automatically change channels to match the
program in the VCR. That renders the VCR useless for time-shifting.

You are right. But that is not the issue/problem raised in the OP to
which I was responding.
