There will be no surprises. You will anyway need to keep track of your connection. You can do that by looking at the connection-name in the mode-line.
It will lead to surprises, as the connection to become the new default won't become the connection of .lisp buffers you used `slime-cycle-connection' in.
Additionally, buffer-local connections can become stale, rendering
the .lisp buffer useless.
If the buffer-local connection become sale, you will avoid running lisp-commands in another random default connection.
It became only stale because it was unnecessarily made buffer-local by `slime-cycle-connection'.
I'll remove the line in question. It seems to be highly specific to your personal use case; you can easily write something for your own personal use on top of a `slime-cycle-connection' that doesn't make the new connection buffer-local automatically.
