Well, I don't know. Now that it's pointed out to me, I see in the Doc
under 'this' only mentions of 'this card' and 'this stack' . . . It
seems a little counterintuitive, though, doesn't it? to have an
apparent "plain English" command with what feels like an arbitrary
limitation on its reference? Why shouldn't "this X" refer to
whichever X is the "current" one of its kind (group, button,
script . . .)?

"This" only applies to the current card or current stack ("this card"
or "this stack"). This may or may not be the object whose
script is executing ("me").
You might want to check out the owner property, in addition
to the entries for "this" and "me" - it sounds like what
you're looking for:
-- in a button script
answer the name of the owner of me -- name of the group
this button is in
answer the hilitedButtonName of the owner of me
