What causes this issue?

The predefined condition 'SPECIFIED' cannot be negated in this
dependency type. You have entered an expression in which the negative
form NOT SPECIFIED occurs or is inferred logically.
You cannot use the negative form of SPECIFIED (for example, NOT
SPECIFIED) in actions or constraints. You can only negate SPECIFIED in
procedures.

System Response

The system marks the incorrect condition as a whole, but not the
specific place where 'NOT SPECIFIED' occurs, because this expression
may only occur due to a combination of other expressions.
