Assuming you are doing this so that you can save your stack file, yes. When
you make a stack a substack, I do believe it incorporates it all together.
However, there is a setting in the standalone builder that avoids this when
you build a standalone. Its under the stacks heading, "move substacks into
individual stack files."
