Oh yeah, And referring to Steven as a child being hurt by 'bad gems' as an excuse doesn't work, because, as mentioned, Gems who encounter Steven don't see him as a human child, just some weird Gem / Rose Quartz in another form.
Oh, you mean like what Bismuth thought when she attacked Steven?
Bismuth: It is you, isn't it, Rose?
It is understandable that the (we as)viewing audience sees Steven Quartz Universe as a child but to Gem characters, with the exception being the Crystal Gems, they do not see a human nor a child. This has to be explicitly explained to them to understand what a human even is and why humans are fragile and important.
It is stated in canon that Gems come out as they are, they are never children.

Bismuth was given a chance though, and she made the exact same mistake again.
This is the fifth time you stated this, I get it. It doesn't mean I am going to agree with you.
It's my opinion that bubbling Bismuth was stupid. Besides that, she can't do anything to a modernized Homeworld without any actual way of getting there. And it is highly likely that she never saw a Corrupted Gem, so to assume she would shatter it without reason isn't a fair assessment.
Bismuth was locked away based on her extreme ideals, not her actions. And for all of Steven's sympathetic moments involving lines such as: "try to see this/it from HER point of view", this was not done with Bismuth.
In addition, if removing 'guest voices' from the casting will allow future characters to have a part in the show without being a one-note, then so be it.
