Lucida Grande looked great on displays for which it was designed (non-Retina) but looked a bit naff and oddly-proportioned on Retina displays. Not unreadable by any means, but the features baked into the font to aid readability on non-Retina displays simply no longer applied once the majority of Apple's products had moved to Retina displays.
