But the world has done nothing of the sorts: what's your assessment of what % of *all* used displays are of retina type?

The funny thing is that in some ways it's true. Modern phones are all retina (because even 1080p at such a resolution is indistinguishable from pixelless). Tablets, even cheap ones, have impressive screen resolutions. I think the highest tea device I own may be my Galaxy Tab S7 FE at 1600x2500.
Computers, on the other hand, have stuck with 1080p, unless you're spending a fortune.
I can only attribute it to penny pinching by the large computer manufacturers, because with the high-res tablets coming to market for Chromebook prices, I doubt they're unable to put a similarly high-res display in a similarly sized laptop without bumping the price up by 500 euros like I've seen them do.
