Why is Apple the only company able to ship a 5K display (5120x2880 native resolution) at a reasonable price? Who wants to develop on the equivalent of a 1080p resolution?

Apple doesn't ship a 5k display. They ship a 5k panel in an all-in-one. Apple doesn't sell any monitors anymore.
For desktops you can buy 5K from LG (they make the panel anyway) and the Surface Studio has 4.5K.
Most laptops have wrong DPI but Razer and the X1 Carbon have reasonable resolution.

The 4K 27" All-in-One will indeed be awkward at both @1x and @2x, which is all that Ubuntu supports (plus changing some font sizes). And who needs touch on a 27" screen? Apple gets it right: 2K/4K for 24" screens, 2.5K/5K for 27" screens.
