SU the Movie: Pearls Speculation

So in Steven Universe the Movie we see Pearl being 'factory reset' along with the rest of the original crystal gems. Pearl's is the most interesting, however, as we see how all Pearls probably emerge after being created. And, more importantly, how they 'imprint' in a way on whoever they were made to serve aka their owner.

You choose what you prefer to be called by your Pearl (Which they will then add "My" in front of in respect.) and then choose the Pearl's setting. (Which I'm guessing is their starting personality? Or maybe how they look?)

No matter who's nearby, it seems that whoever speaks to the clam AI thingy first is the one who the Pearl 'imprints' on? 

Which really makes me wonder how easy it would be to steal a Pearl made for some other gem...especially if that Pearl accidentally forms/emerges early and you happen to be nearby. Though I'm guessing that would most definitely be a crime worthy of punishment by Homeworld's standards. (Also they could use those scythes seen in the movie to undo the theft, but it's still interesting to speculate about nonetheless.)

Also based on this AI settings system Pearls have, which is a much different way of emerging than most gems, it still makes me wonder if Pearls are made differently...

Mini Steven Universe Theory : Lapis’ Next Fusion?

Now that they've become a solid trio, what if Lapis' first healthy fusion is actually a three gem fusion? 

Maybe to help her feel comfortable enough to fuse again she'll need the support of not just one but two people she trusts and loves: Peridot and Bismuth? 

(This could also be Peridot's first fusion, which could have been foreshadowed when Garnet offered to fuse with her. Garnet and Peridot would have also resulted in a three gem fusion being her first fusion. But it wasn't the right time for her yet...and perhaps...not the right other two gems?)
