A couple of differences: (1) the Einstein field equations generically produce singularities from typical initial conditions (i.e., in some sense this has probability 1); (2) in the EFE, you don't have an underlying spacetime manifold on which this happens -- the manifold only comes about once you've already solved the equations. | |
