I tested on a Colibri iMX6 and a Nitrogen6x, both with the same result.

Its systemd which makes the difference, with SysVinit (or something
else in a poky setup)
the not mountable fstab line seems to be simply ignored.
If using systemd init gets delayed by a 1.5 minute waiting for the
device and then you get
something like this:

    Welcome to emergency mode! After Press Enter for maintenance
    (or press Control-D to continue):

/etc/fstab looks like this:
    # stock fstab - you probably want to override this with a machine
specific one

    /dev/root            /                    auto       noatime
        1  1
    proc                 /proc                proc       defaults
        0  0
    devpts               /dev/pts             devpts
mode=0620,gid=5       0  0
    usbdevfs             /proc/bus/usb        usbdevfs   noauto
        0  0
    tmpfs                /run                 tmpfs
mode=0755,nodev,nosuid,strictatime 0  0
    tmpfs                /var/volatile        tmpfs      defaults
        0  0

    # uncomment this if your device has a SD/MMC/Transflash slot
    #/dev/mmcblk0p1       /media/card          auto
defaults,sync,noauto  0  0

    /dev/mmcblkp1    /boot    vfat    defaults    0    0

On the Colibri iMX6 the boot partition would be /dev/mmcblk1p1, on the
Nitrogen6x /dev/mmcblk0p1.
By using the add kickstarter file wic does not modify fstab and the
last entry is simply not there.
