I think Pearl and Garnet have avoided teaching Steven some aspects of Gem-life just like they did Amethyst (she didn't know that Amethysts were supposed to be huge soldiers). Although Pearl goes all nerd-zone when she's going around old Gem buildings, I don't think she has ever stopped to explain to Steven exactly what these buildings were used for (I think the arenas were more than arenas. If you flip over the Sky and Cloud arena you have something that looks remarkably like a palace) Pearl never explained which Gems used the Lunar Sea Spire as an oasis

If Lapis Lazuli joins the CG, it will be she who bridges the gap between Steven and old-school Gems whereas Peridot represents modern Gems from after the Rebellion
