Max ARP Entries and Max Mac Addresses Are Different

in CCNA & CCENT
In a datasheet I saw, the number of max arp entries are 4094. However, the maximum mac addresses are 16384.
Can anyone tell me why there is a difference in the number of mac and arp entries.
I thought that both work together?

Each device has 1 NIC card which can only be assigned one ip address.
So why mac address much more than arp entries allowed?
Isnt it peculiar, I can have 16384 mac addresses but 4094 arp entries.
Every device have a mac and ip address no?
