This is just a reference to the commit that introduced the explicit
error. Do note that the error got downgraded to a warning in a more
recent development version of Org mode. But the warning still indicates
inappropriate usage of Org functions that are designed to work in Org
mode and expect Org mode buffer.

`org-meta-return' cannot be used in non-Org buffers. Just as the error
states. May you please explain why you are trying to use Org mode
command outside Org mode?

Not a bug, although we can still discuss your use case.
Canceled. (as a bug)
