Idea; Rose comes to Earth as Pink Diamond, sent there to create another generation of gems. She has a change of heart when she sees the devastating effect she's having on the planet and the life already here, and so to symbolize her breaking away from the Diamond Authority she redubs herself Rose Quartz. She was made in the Kindergarden but she wasn't grown in an earth-bound hole~
That’s pretty much the only explanation of Rose is Pink Diamond that I’ll accept at this point. Gosh I am so skeptical of that theory (not Rose being a leader necessarily, but her having to be a Diamond to be a leader seems unnecessary to me)
