but the same waves could be reproduced without gravity in an appropriate accelerating frame (e.g. in a rotating body at a Lagrange point) so gravity isn't _essential_, whereas it is for gravitational waves

Gravity is the result of an appropriately accelerating frame (i.e. the curvature of spacetime).
