Added the above code to the original main script code then tested it on 10.2.8 and 10.4.2 with SE and Smile, and it errors as expected when attempting to get the reference's contents. (Though oddly SE and Smile report different errors, -1700 vs -1728.) You're definitely using the exact same code as you've posted here?

Shouldn't make any difference other than delaying the point at which the script fails. Incidentally, your 'my' and 'a ref to' operators are all superfluous anyway and would best be removed.
