[lisa rolley] "Actually i dont believe the interlacing matters i just know that 1920x1080 is the delivery and i am familiar with 1080i format - all i know is that this DP shot 2k & 4k and now i need to conform to 1920x1080 edit in fcp"

Ok, not to be rude, but I do not understand how can you work on any project when you do not know what the final output format is going to be?
with any new workflow you work backwards from the delivery to solve your production issues, I find it much easier when I understand the delivery when i start.
