That simply is not true. The netlister _does_ work with hierarchical
designs, but typically, our back-ends target a flat output, such as for
PCB. There are "symbol" and "source" libraries (symbols and underlying
schematics).

Granted, we probably could do with adding some polish, but depending on
what you're wanting as your final output, you can do hierarchical
designs.
