In my interpretation a "Trust Registry" defines the system an authority operates to answer all kind of questions concerning "building human trust". A "Trust List" is one of a kind to store information in a trust registry.

Practical example: A trust registry may have a trust list for "verified actors" (issuers, verifiers) and a trust list for "serious wallet providers".

As correctly said in #82 (comment) the type "list" is only a simple form providing basic information. Thinking in relational models, other informations will (have to) extend the data about the actors in the list(s), the used credential types, the permitted claims to request, the process definitions etc. --> so the whole thing is then the trust registry, handling all "trustful information".
