M.2 is a physical interface. It can support SATA III, PCIe over AHCI or PCIe over NVMe.

I think the point is Apple used (proprietary) PCIe SSDs on Macs a full year before anyone else even put M.2 connectors on their motherboards or laptops, let alone ones that included NVMe support, which wasn't even finalized yet.
