I think there's some miscommunication here.  Andrew is asking why the
request is considered to be "cross origin" in the first place.  In other
words, why does the question of whether this is a supported instance of
such a thing even come up?  That's a reasonable reading of the error
message.

Howver, I suspect you are right, and the error message is supposed to
answer the question, but the way it is worded does not do that.  Maybe
the message is supposed to mean something like

  "Origin checks are only supported for protocol schemes http, data,
  chrome, chrome-extension and https.  All others will be taken to be
  invalid cross-origin requests."
