Don't know if it's possible to use .populate with .collection methods or not, but the error is not an obvious one and should be more clear

Steps to Reproduce

Say we have a collection named Schools and another one named Classes

• Create school document with classIds inside it

await Schools.create({ name: 'example_name', classIds: [ObjectId('1'),ObjectId('3'),ObjectId('2')]});

• Query the school collection and populate the classIds

const schools = Schools.collection.findOne({_id:someSchoolId}).populate('classIds');

the exception will occur

Expected Behavior
