I think the Cluster was Yellow Diamond's twisted way of ensuring the Crystal Gems could never savor their victory. She took the Crystal Gems that had been shattered and turned them into a way to destroy the planet they'd sacrificed themselves to save. And it's scary just how many CG did get shattered - Rose opposed shattering and ensured the rebels never shattered, just poofed enemies - so the cluster is made up just of Rose's followers...

Also, Homeworld didn't do this until after Pink was shattered, so that means the entire war Homeworld was keeping shards. Lapis & Eyeball comment that part of the reason the CG could put up the fight they did was that Rose could heal gems, so perhaps Homeworld was worried that Rose would simply revive shattered gems. Could she?

And by extention, can Steven heal shattered gems if he had all the pieces?
