`user-error' is a standard error symbol in Emacs, which is fired by the
function `user-error'. See (info "(elisp) Signaling Errors")

Those are error messages invented by programmers who never had any
project supervisor who thinks of users.
If user wish to abort it is not an error. Even if it is error, why it

Sure, that is possible. However, consider a possibility that some
external package wants to detect when capture is aborted. If I was

(condition-case err
(t ))

same could certainly be implemented

This is intended. Normally, it just shows up as a message in the
minibuffer. Or do you have debug-on-error enabled?
Best,
Ihor
Emacs fires "user-error: Abort" after pressing "q" to abort org-capture.
