OGG is indeed lossy, but to my knowledge it's not a great difference from MP3. I do agree that sounds should be kept in the highest quality possible, and as such converted to WAV if it's a strange format.
However if the files are already in OGG format (as is the case with some voices I've recently ripped), then converting them to WAV greatly blows up the size with no quality increase, and converting to MP3 probably loses even more quality. In this case I think that it should be acceptable as the format's not as obscure now as it was, say, 5 years ago.
