Nowadays udev doesn't create nodes in /dev anymore. This role is rather

                              ^static

As of writing this, udev still takes care of "normal" device nodes.

nops... it doesn't even have the capability to create nodes anymore:

I don' t know what you mean by normal device node... but udev now
relies on 2 sources for creating nodes:

1) devtmpfs in the kernel
2) systemd-tmpfiles, that runs on early boot taking the output of
'kmod static-nodes'

Ah, I didn't know that devtmpfs is mandatory now.
