M-RET is bound to minibuffer-choose-completion in completion-in-region-mode-map.
minibuffer-choose-completion let-binds completion-use-base-affixes to t
before calling choose-completion. Therefore completion-use-base-affixes
should be ignored in choose-completion for completion-in-region-mode.

Here is the output of 'C-h v buffer-undo-list' after typing M-RET
in the *scratch* buffer:
buffer-undo-list is a variable defined in ‘C source code’.
Its value is shown below.
Value:
(nil
(1 . 166)
(#(";; This buffer is for text that is not saved, and for Lisp evaluation.
;; To create a file, visit it with C-x C-f and enter text in its buffer.
(with-c" 0 3
