[General Sci Fi] Why isn't gravity weaponized?

In many sci fi series, the ships have artificial gravity. If they could replicate gravity itself, then wouldn't someone be able to easily manipulate the gravity generators into becoming a super weapon that could implode planets? (This may have happened in some show, but I'm not sure).

That's what they did to Malachor V in Knights of the Old Republic, basically. gravity-cracked the planet with the entire Mandalorian army on it, plus a decent number of Republic troops.

The obvious excuse to why it doesn't happen is that it'd be absurdly energy intensive to do such a thing and would likely require an entire flotilla of extremely specialized and likely quite fragile ships. Planets aren't small and gravity generators (depending on the setting) don't seem to cover more than the ship itself, if that.
