Whiskers seem like a natural evolutionary process. The question remaining is why didn't all nocturnal mammals acquire them eventually.

I can't think of too many that don't have whiskers, which ones do you have in mind?
Whiskers are however managed by a different set of genes than basic body hair.
I'm thinking the Aardvark, maybe Anteaters, wombats?
