does it make sense to you that a "hole" has mass, electric charge, and angular momentum and is completely characterized by these properties?

Notice how an electron hole also has all those properties. That's because those properties are due to specific symmetries of various fields (in space), or symmetries of space itself. Those properties are not "in" the particle, they do not belong to it, rather they are constraints over what kind of interactions can happen in all space that is causally-connected.
