Having ridden a great deal of gravel in my time I can't figure out why the GRX cranks would be set-up for cyclocross rather than gravel.
I'm not sure what you mean but my Ultegra crankset on my crossbike have 46/36T chainrings and the GRX crankset on my gravel bike 48/31T chainrings. I think both cranks are suitable for both kind of riding. It is all about the cassette. I have a lower gear with the GRX crankset combined with a 14-28 cassette than I have with my Ultegra cross crankset with a 11-32 cassette and the 14-28 cassette has smaller jumps betweem the gears. I think the GRX crankset makes a very nice gear set up.
99% of gravel rides are on flat or nearly so ground. That means that a gravel bike should be setup to ride at a reasonable speed on the normal road - or a compact 50-34. The 48-31 of the GRX cranks is altogether wrong for a gravel bike though pretty good for an 11-speed cyclocross bike.
