It's important to have deterministic simulations and semantics that you can reliably reason about. Both VHDL and SystemVerilog offer this to some extent, but in the case of (System)Verilog the order of value updates is not as strictly enforced. In practice, this means that if you switch to another or a newer simulator, suddenly your testbenches will fail. The simulator vendors love this of course. This hidden cost is underestimated.

No sane hardware engineer would want randomness in their simulation unless they get to control it.
