Although character and block device files already existed, their semantics don't map well to the way that flash memory devices operate.
Do not be confused by USB sticks, MMCs, SDs, CompactFlashes and other popular removable devices. Although they are also called "flash", they are not Memory Technology Devices. - Wiki
