Soon afterwards, someone realised that actual ASICs themselves could be written *in* verilog. Unfortunately, however, with verilog being designed on 1980s state of the art programming concepts, it has hampered ASiC design ever since. We use nmigen because we can do proper OO. we can do multiple inheritance, class MixIns. proper parameterisation and much more, all of which would be absolute hell to do in verilog. We would need some form of massive macro preprocessing system or a nonstandard version of verilog. + +Rather than inflict that kind of pain onto both ourselves and the rest of the world, we went with nmigen. Now you know why. hurrah. +
