Your script must have called "choose folder" at some point.
Yes, it did!
Can this cause intereference if I'm not careful to name a preference file correctly?
The file created by "Convert Audio" is named "Convert Audio.plist". If I were to read/write a preference file for "Convert Audio" with the name "Convert Audio.plist", would I be in trouble?
You would never write a file named "Convert Audio.plist", unless you were an expert in .plist files. (They can still be written in XML). Instead, you could
do shell script "defaults write" to it, and study up on how to do that. (It's not hard.) Doing it that way would not overwrite different properties that the system is also writing to the same file.
