Yes, but is there a real case for that ?  In microelectronics,
propagation time is not in minutes!

Discussing use-cases of VHDL/GHDL could be interesting but for this thread 
would it be sufficient to say that VHDL can be used to model systems other than 
microelectronics?

No, it would be interesting to know your use case!

Hopefully, this will be funny rather than inflammatory but I'm reminded of a 
remark suggesting that Ada is only relevant to weapon systems development:

Well, Ada defines itself as a general purpose language (and there is
Ada code in many civil planes like 787) while VHDL specifically targets
digital electronics.  Of course you can use the discrete event kernel
for other purposes.
