You could call soup a thinner stew or stew a thicker soup if you want. I see it as a case where they are two distinct things but the line between them is fuzzy enough for there to be dishes that are kinda in between.

In that case yeah it's like varying degrees of the same thing. But they're made similarly which is what qualifies them as "soups".

isn't gumbo technically gravy?

I think gumbo is more of a stew but I suppose the liquid part of it can be considered gravy, just like beef stew's liquid is more or less beef gravy.
