Installing different versions of node and npm deviates from nix behavior

Describe the bug

With the following flake.nix


{
  description = "Node dev";
  inputs.flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils";
  inputs.devshell.url = "github:numtide/devshell";

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, flake-utils, devshell }:

    flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (system: {
      devShell = let
        pkgs = import nixpkgs {
          inherit system;

          overlays = [ devshell.overlay ];
        };
      in pkgs.devshell.mkShell {
        imports = [ (pkgs.devshell.importTOML ./devshell.toml) ];
        devshell.packages = [ pkgs.nodejs-14_x pkgs.nodePackages.npm ];

      };
    });

nix develop results into error

Whereas in regular flake.nix both the packages are installed and gives you a shell with node 14 and npm 8.

I can understand if this is a feature rather than a bug. In that case please let me know what is a workaround.
