this RFC describes an asynchronous message passing system; GTP is more like a 
simple remote procedure call at Go engines.

These are different things and therefore you cannot really compare GTP to UCI 
or call UCI more advanced. I cringe, when I think about how to write tools 
that need to access functionality of Go engines, but have to deal with 
unexpected messages or state changes at any time.
