No it does not assume that. Some very smart people will write that model.toVHDL() function. And keep in mind that a DL model is only a very small subset of what you can use VHDL for, and most models will have a very similar implementation in hardware from a conceptual point of view.
And don't take it too literally, VHDL could be replaced by other hardware design languages, maybe even at lower abstraction levels.
