One such problem is the lack of enough nails.

The thing is you won´t even notice until it´s too late, i.e. your floor has gotten damaged, because nails penetrate deep into the wood and out of sight. Nailing is not always mandatory, depending on the wood, subfloor, local conditions like humidity, average temperatures etc., but if your floor needs them, they are of crucial importance.
