Trying with the latest release of Org (9.3.6), I exported this without
hitting the above error, so upgrading will likely resolve the issue for
you.

If upgrading doesn't work for you (or you'd just like to investigate),
doing "M-x toggle-debug-on-error" and getting a backtrace could be a
good place to start.

Unfortunately after M-x toggle-debug-on-error I'm not getting relevant additional messages in the *Messages* buffer (I read that messages will appear in the *Warnings* buffer, but I see that there is no *Warnings* buffer created):

    Debug on Error enabled globally

    OpenDocument export failed: Wrong number of arguments: nil, 0
    You can run the command ‘org-odt-export-to-odt’ with M-x -od-t RET

However, when trying to upgrade org, I try exporting under "emacs -q" and this error does not happen. So I'll need to comb through my years-old ~/.emacs to try to figure out what causes this error.
