Thing is that the line doesn't do any computation, so the result in the result window is whatever is on the right side of the equation.

Going back to the original equation, we saw this:
set {a, b, c, d, e} to "abcdefgh"
--> "abcdefgh"

However:
set {a, b, c, d, e} to "abcdefgh"
{a, b, c, d, e}
--> {"a", "b", "c", "d", "e"}
