The unusual thing here is that 'every item of entire
contents' seems to be treating 'entire contents' as a reference and not as
an AppleScript list.

Here's another datapoint, I think:

tell application "Finder"
	class of (items of (entire contents of (choose folder)))
end tell

--> {document file, folder, document file, document file, folder, document file, document file, folder, folder, document file, document file, document file, document file, document file, document file, document file, document file, document file, document file, document file, internet location file, folder, internet location file, document file, document file, document file}

However, you get the same result without "items of"

tell application "Finder"
	set x to (items of (entire contents of (choose folder)))
	class of x
end tell
--> list

Again, you get the same result without "items of"
