_In reply to [NiLu](https://verificationacademy.com/forums/t/what-difference-between-event-and-wait-event-triggered/30742/9):_

Because the UVM connection mechanism is built into the connect phase, and no one is willing to enhance the UVM to have it work otherwise.  
You can use a TLM fifo with direct puts and gets, without using the ports and exports.
