RTL In VLSI design

In VLSI design, there is a design phase called RTL(Register Transfer Level) design. Why are we going for register level designs in VLSI, where the circuitry contains only transistors???

    In HDLs the designer declares the registers (which roughly correspond to variables in computer programming languages), and describes the combination logic by using constructs that are familiar from programming languages such as if-then-else and arithmetic operations. This level is called register-transfer level. The term refers to the fact that RTL focuses on describing the flow of signals between registers.
