General problem with manually created device nodes is that udev and
systemd do not know about them. Device units do not exist for these
device nodes. Hence these device units can not be a dependency of some
other unit. Typical example is manually created device node referenced
from /etc/fstab. Then corresponding mount unit is bound to a device
that never shows up and hence it always fails to mount even tough
device node is there.
