Sorry if I am totally confused, I am an org beginner.
If I do 'C-h f org-metaleft', I see
org-metaleft is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `org.el'.
(org-metaleft &optional ARG)
Promote heading or move table column to left.
Calls `org-do-promote' or `org-table-move-column', depending on context.
With no specific context, calls the Emacs default `backward-word'.
See the individual commands for more information.
However, if I look at the code, it seems to me that it does other
things, at least org-outdent-item. Experimenting a bit with
org-metaleft and org-outdent-item seems to confirm this feeling.
The doc for org-metaright
org-metaright is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `org.el'.
(org-metaright &optional ARG)
Demote a subtree, a list item or move table column to right.
In front of a drawer or a block keyword, indent it correctly.
With no specific context, calls the Emacs default `forward-word'.
See the individual commands for more information.
is more accurate with respect to list items, but one would expect it
to say "Calls `org-do-demote' etc."

I improved these docstrings in 0e7062678eb224027e5eca70a205430083a13a64.
