that does made sense! but i think there is also an influence from stability of fusions that make another fusion together: like, if garnet+opal are fused into alexandrite, they may split into garnet and opal or garnet, pearl and amethyst since garnet is a very stable fusion and opal is not, or even they may be split in four gems if they desire. (and we still don't know if alexandrite was a fusion of garnet+pearl+amethyst at once or pearl and amethyst could fuse into opal first and then fuse into alexandrite with garnet, so it's quite hard to make theories, but anyway)
