Describe Gravity as Protocol Centric, rather than contract centric. #13

Although protocols can be seen as contracts, contracts in the current space imply one underlying VM. In Gravity, a contract describe the interaction among autonomous VMs over a network (or across trust boundaries) and as such, we could claim that it actually is protocol centric. (After all object capabilities foundation is message sending)
