Is there a benefit to mdev over just using tmpdevfs?

I say that as a current user of mdev; I haven't yet tried a tmpdevfs initramfs 
device system. But if I'm understanding it correctly tmpdevfs should be 
sufficient for any use were an default-config mdev run would work, and requires 
less configuration/tools, less boot scripting, and the need to wait for a 
coldplug scan in the initramfs.
