Explanation:

obj: make object! [a: "" b: ""]
t: 'obj
new-obj: make t []

** Script Error: Expected one of: word! - not: block!.
** Where: new-obj: make t []

when Make encounters a word 'Obj as its first argument, it thinks
that you are asking it to create a word specified by the second
argument. It can't create a word from a Block! type value and
tries to tell you that. (the problem here is, that the computer
cannot guess your intent correctly - no intuition so far) If the
second argument were a string or another datatype compatible with
word, make would simply create the appropriate word.
