With the exception of Air and Mac Mini devices Macs are significantly more expensive for lowest configurations versus iPhones. So having a longer cycle isn’t rare. Plus they don’t sell in nearly the volumes that iPhone or even iPads do.

People must have forgotten the 18+ month refresh cycles for a lot of Intel Macs. The Mini I think got to almost 4 years at one point 2014 ->2018 models. People tend to hold onto computers a lot longer than phones. Be it Macs or even PCs.
