After converting from Xcode 8 to 7.x and opening in Xcode 7.3.1, my Storyboard is horribly corrupted...ahem...modified such that I will probably need to throw it out and start over. e.g. text is drawn blocky everywhere, weird flashing of table cell separators, strange table cell selection behavior, etc.

Seriously, try selecting the storyboard in Xcode 8 and then display the Inspector panel.  Press command option 1.  Look for Interface Builder Document.  Display the contents.  Select Opens in: Xcode 7.0

This is just a data versioning type.  It shouldn't care if you never opened it on Xcode 7 before.
