Not to mention that they are all the same Gem-type (Diamond, duh) so one could also expect them to be able to fuse with each-other (without breaking the fusion taboo of Homeworld) and become even stronger yet. I think cross-gem fusion pretty much became a fad on Homeworld. I doubt it. The fact that Homeworld went as far as to expirment with the Gem Mutants seems to imply that they don't even understand how cross-Gem type Fusion even works. Plus, you have the Ruby squad being a thing and still using the classic type of same-Gem type Fusion - which implies that they still use it. And you have Peridot who is a modern-day Homeworld Gem who is still (or was) extremely bothered by Garnet because of the cross-Gem type Fusion she is. If it had become accept and such back on Homeworld, I'd think Peridot would've been less antagonistic towards Garnet, no?
