While you are mostly correct one of the probelms you make is that Lapis wasn't forced into her fusion with Jasper she herself admitted that was a choice and why she made that choice. Also the same logic you use is that none of Lapis's past expirences excuse her actions either. She didn't have to be stuck in Malachite infact the only reason Malachite continued to exist is because she wanted her to, remember Jasper asked to stop and tried to leave the fusion 22 seconds after her creation, so Lapis by no means was forced to be a part of that. Also just because she was hurt or upset is no reason to lash out at others. Jasper isn't much better but she took responsibilty for everything she does and doesn't make excuses like Lapis who never takes responsibilty for her own actions, which are the cause of most of her problems anyway.
