I can reproduce the issue on Magento 2.4.1 as @nans mentioned.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Add new customer attribute whose code is varchar_attribute, Input Type => Text Field, Add to Column Options => Yes, Use in Filter Options => Yes.

2. Define the varchar_attribute in the customer_listing.xml as in this sample module
   TestCompany.zip

3. Flush cache and reindex customer_grid in order to create the varchar_attribute in the table customer_grid_flat.

4. Export the customer data at the Customer listing page.

Expected result:
Can download the CSV file.

Actual result:

Root cause:

The root cause is the code at the line https://github.com/magento/magento2/blob/2.4-develop/app/code/Magento/Customer/Ui/Component/Listing/Columns.php#L161. It is getting the dataType from the backend type of the attribute while in this line https://github.com/magento/magento2/blob/2.4-develop/app/code/Magento/Customer/Ui/Component/ColumnFactory.php#L74 it is create new column with dataType from the frontend input of the attribute. In my case, a component is added for the varchar_attribute with the dataType=varchar. varchar is not a valid UI component type.

I think dataType of the component should be frontend input because frontend input exists in the component types in https://github.com/magento/magento2/blob/2.4-develop/app/code/Magento/Ui/view/base/ui_component/etc/definition.xml.

Although we need custom code to reproduce the issue, the root cause belongs to Magento Core.
