They are not. The power of rich and succinct specification languages (like TLA+) comes from the ability to succinctly express things that cannot be efficiently computed, or at all. That is because a description of what a program does is necessarily at a higher level of abstraction than the program (i.e. there are many possible programs or even magical oracles that can do what a program does).
To give a contrived example, let's say you want to state that a particular computation terminates. To do it in a clear and concise manner, you want to express the property of termination (and prove that the computation satisfies it), but that property is not, itself, computable. There are some ways around it, but as a rule, a specification language is more convenient when it can describe things that cannot be executed.
