Apple does not use a one-size-fits-all in ppi.
The phones are assumed to be held close to your eye and have a 460ppi.
The MacBooks are assumed to be seen from a medium distance and use around 225ppi.
The Studio display and Prod Display distance is a little longer and use 218ppi.
Retina is a property based on subtended angle from the viewer's perspective, not on a physical property of the device.

I never said Apple uses the same PPI for all their devices.
