If there's a bug here, it's that not all strings can be coerced to the "URL" class. The thing no one has asked yet is why the originator is bothering in the first place, since the "URL" class as it currently exists is fairly useless.

Indeed, it is quite useless. But in the course of discovering that fact, I also came upon the coercion issue, which puzzled me. So I thought I'd ask.

Now I have a somewhat better understanding of the 'subtleties' of AppleScript string and text classes. Thanks.
