Photos from a Sony body need to leave the photographer's machine as ordinary images.
Sony's raw sensor data is demosaiced and rendered to an 8-bit JPEG with a neutral tone curve.
Many Sony bodies default to a lossy compressed raw mode that already discards some highlight data at capture time. Converting cannot recover it, and the compression artefacts it introduces appear along very high contrast edges rather than across the whole frame.
No. Those are metadata instructions applied by Sony's own rendering. A generic converter produces a neutral result.
Distortion and vignetting profiles are stored as metadata. A basic conversion may not apply them, so straight lines near the frame edge can bow slightly.

JPEG Image is lossy, so the quality control decides the trade between size and fidelity.
Converted and deleted the moment it finishes. Never written to permanent storage.
