I thought I might hide them in the hidden directory so they aren't inadvertently deleted. If the hidden directory is recreated on startup, why wouldn't anything I put there be deleted anyway?

Startup here means after reset, crash, TTRM etc. not turning off/on the calculator. Otherwise alarms for example would be impossible to exist.

Even though it is possible to use HD to store stuff IMO it's not worth doing it. I'd rather create sub-directory to keep data in. You can do that programmatically.

Hope this helps.
