well, that seems like a plausible theory, but... wouldn't they have died out oh say about 100 to 1000 years after the kindergarten was deactivated. Steven Universe takes place 6000 years after the events of the gem war. But the gems on the homeworld are now very advanced and can even block the Crystal Gem's weaponry. So how could they be dying out from an unnatural force.
