I remember the transition from static device nodes to devfs because there were problems with static devices, then shortly afterwards we moved to udev because devfs was fatally, unfixably flawed, then devtmpfs + udev for some reason which isn't particularly clear, now there's a mention in LKML of moving udev into the kernel source tree. Now wondering if we're ever going back to static device nodes, just to really come back full circle.

many people never stopped using static device nodes. For systems that don't have the hardware changing on them, a static /dev works very well.
not everything is a laptop with random USB device of the day getting hot-plugged into it.
