okay so apparently artificial gems (as in the non sentient gems) were used to bulk up the cluster. This makes it more plausible that only Crystal gems were used. (though we know from Lapis that homeword couldn't/can't tell the difference between poofed gems so there's still that)  I think they could have made it in a similar way the Cave of the Crystals ( a real life thing) formed. Heck the Cave Crystals look similar to the cluster
