We can't be certain that Steven's gem is incapable of regenerating his human form (the human constructs the gems use are already similar to humans, complete with functioning internal organs), and Steven was formed in the womb of such a construct, so it's not impossible. Plus, we already know Steven can shapeshift, so it's clear that his body can do at least some of the things a gem's construct can. In short, Amethyst said it best, "It's Steven, who knows what's gonna happen!"
