Okay.

Pearl said all Gems can shape shift inclueding herself (as we've seen in "Space Race" and "Beach Party")

And yes. She did mention altering body parts and turning into objects as things they can do with it.

But never did she say at any piont that every Gem has complete and totally mastery of this power to the point where a freshly made gem can turn into what ever they want the moment they first try.

It's like saying "humans have the power to speak, walk, swin, read and write" but not mentioning that not all humans are necessarily good at these things are can even do them all.

As I said before, Shapeshifting seems to be mostly cosmetic yet Garnet has been able put it to good use a few times.
