Apr 26, 2018 at 20:35 comment added user4552 This sounds wrong to me, unless there's a much more detailed argument that you're not making in detail. GR doesn't say that mass-energy creates contraction, it says that mass-energy creates curvature. Contraction is a more specific interpretation of things like cosmological models, and in those models, there is not a correlation between contraction and the sign of the mass (i.e., an energy condition). For example, in a closed cosmology with a big crunch, you get contraction and then expansion, but there is no exotic matter.
