Meteor is pretty unfit for prime time app development. They might one day hoist it over the fence, but for right now it remains a nice idea, I think.
For one thing, there were some regrettable architectural decisions made from the start: MongoDB just don't cut it. If my company tried to sell apps built with Meteor and/or MongoDB to corporate clients, we'd be waiting tables and working construction for a living.
But there are other issues there, perhaps even philosophical ones. I've become disheartened at what I see happening in the JavaScript arena. Change and never-ending-newness are distorting the reality field there. It's all shiny churn, frothy and irrational.
