That would make sense, but the Cluster was made sometime after the Gem War when the Earth colony was seen as no longer viable. Obviously, since the Cluster would destroy the Earth, this is confirmed to be after the rebellion, meaning Pink would have been shattered. Therefore, the only conclusion to come to about the Cluster's loyalty lies in how Steven acted.

Since our boy Steven used his emotional powers to talk to the Cluster, he ended up befriending it, thus leading to the Cluster bubbling itself. The Cluster bubbling itself could only have been achieved if it trusted Steven and was friends with him.

However, Pink's powers could have definitely played a role in befriending the Cluster, most likely something that was similar to Steven's emotional aura powers. We might not have seen him use it, but some part of Pink's diamond powers must've influenced the Cluster's emotions into befriending Steven.
