I have a Google Account where the primary email is a non-Gmail address. By accident, I added a (silly) Gmail address to this account. Now I would like to delete the silly Gmail address and replace it with a sensible one. I do not wish to lose this Google Account as it has many things I need to keep. So the question is: If I delete the silly Gmail name, will I lose the account?

Short Answer
Go to http://myaccount.google.com and Remove Gmail permanently. This will remove Gmail address as the primary email address of your account and later will allow you to choose another Gmail address, if you like to do so.
Remarks
Once a Gmail address is added to a Google Account, it becomes the primary email address for that account.
Acording to Sign in to your Google Account with another email address - Accounts Help Gmail addresses can't be used as alternate email addresses.
