Change that to:

set x to screen edge

if x is not left then

Don't coerce enumerators to text; the result you get can vary, depending on whether you're in a script editor, in which case the terminology is loaded and the term is coerced, or a running script, in which case the four-letter code is coerced.

It happens to work here because the four-letter code for left is the same as coercing the term left to a string, but it's not a good thing to rely on.
