Why can't I coerce a list of a single item that is a file reference to an 'alias list' ?

What you're seeing is a long-standing bug (and it's not really a coercion). So you need to do something like:

try
set x to every folder of folder theRootFolder as alias list
on error -- only one
set x to every folder of folder theRootFolder as alias
end try
