Yes, I see now, because you can implicitly cast List<sObject> to List<Account> (!) but not sObject to Account. I'll edit the question again to match the answers.

But it's a dramatically more complicated question when you want the map value to be SObject instead of List<SObject>.

@AdrianLarson No, I want GroupBy, and that's what I got, thank you! I just simplified the question when asking.

So you want MapBy, not GroupBy?

| Jan 12, 2017 at 22:32 | comment | added | ipavlic | @AdrianLarson I am, yes. I'd like to group sObjects by some field other than Id. | |

It's very different when your key type is SObject vs List<SObject>. Where are you getting the structure from? Are you trying to write a mapping/grouping utility?
