You know. Maybe the gems were/are emotionally immature people because the majority of them were born in a society where having emotions and personal desires was literally considered a privilege for the elite, and even the elite could only express them in extreme circumstances. Nobody ever really taught them how to regulate anything they felt whatsoever, and that gaping hole in their development followed them even thousands of years after they defected from their shitty society.

#I think the gems of homeworld have literally stunted themselves in something equivalent to a childlike mindstate #they keep unlocking new abilities and stuff after getting character development because they are actually MEANT to grow #the default settings they are born with are litearlly just a guideline to get them started #and not intended to be a permanent unchanging life direction #at least thats my game theory #NOT to say they are literal children mind you #but rather they still require experiences and guidance and currently their society has decided thats just not true #which has concequences in the long run
