The backup program target selection is not extinction corrected, so the ETC effective time shouldn't be either.
Is any change needed for the backup speeds?
The ETC gets its dust extinction from the fiber-assign file associated with the current tile, calculated as the nanmedian of all targets with OBJTYPE == "TGT".
All exposures use the same Ebv coefficient, which defaults to 2.165.
The ETC currently has no notion of the DARK / BRIGHT / BACKUP programs, beyond what is implied by the SBPROF = PSF / EGL / BGS / FLT, so the first issue is how to identify backup tiles. Is there a program keyword somewhere in a fiberassign FITS header?

Note that the FAPRGRM could be "hand-edited" when designing tiles for special tiles (so could be different than "BACKUP" for some non-main tiles, even if I m not sure why we d do that).
So using GOALTYPE=="BACKUP" to identify BACKUP tiles should be fine.
I'd vote for pulling this from FAPRGRM in the fiberassign header. I don't think you use source count noise for anything, but ideally we'd like that to be much higher for BACKUP. That would be a more significant change that we would fold into the bright and dark programs as well.
