Why are these different?

I recently tackled a question about a script that used the 'list folder'
command.

I wondered why the two lines below return different results:

'last item of (list folder myFolder)' returns the last item according to
alphabetical order

'last item of myFolder' returns the item that appears last when the contents
of myFolder are arranged by kind.

So, why the difference?
