    A common misconception of Red crystals used by Jedi is that where they tended to show up was in comics, where colors could be muddied and as such what was supposed to be orange would actually appear more red before comics went to a higher quality of paper. Also in cases where it's obviously red (Quinlin Vos as an example) he was actually in an undercover state to infiltrate and gain intel an insight into how the (relatively) few fallen jedi during the clone wars were recruited by the count.
    Also legends versus Canon as far as I know, but with the extreme rarity of red kyber and any one single attraction to it 99% of the energy of sith blades were projected through synthetically produced crystals forged via sith alchemy. Which also attuned them directly with the dark side.
    I know that modern Disney canon has altered this somewhat as having a fallen Jedi "Bleed" or corrupt their own kyber crystal. But I feel like this is only a way to explain the consistency during a period where practically every truly fallen jedi would still end up with red blades. Where as fallen Jedi that did not fully fall to the dark side itself or an era where they could be taken in by sith, continued to use their previously built lightsabers in full. My only interaction with "Bleeding" was through Jedi: Survivor, and it seems like that is primarily an option for someone that truly embraces the dark side through extremely intense negatively driven emotion and TOTAL embracing of the dark side. That is how it appears from my singular perspective.

    Synthetic crystals were usually the hallmark of Sith or Dark Jedi, but Jedi and Imperial Jedi used them a lot too, exclusively in the case of the Imperial Jedi. There was nothing inherently wrong about them, but usually Jedi saw them as 'taking the quick and easy path'. Luke Skywalker had to use a synth crystal for his first lightsabre, which was green, and Jaina Solo used one too for hers, which was violet.

    I could see the sith using synthetic crystals for battle while the bled crystals are for decorations as reminders of their triumphs. Albeit that's the only way I could think of for them both to exist at the same time, but the only problem I have with it is the fact that Kyber Crystals used to have special properties I find it sad that such interesting lore was just completely removed for no justifiable reason that I can think of or have heard at all.

    "one of the steps" for the creation of a artificial lightsaber crystal require multiple things, it's generally used by those who don't restrain and let the energy flow fully; the process requires patience for the creation and blending the energy(your) to the crystal, yellow ones are natural.
    The artificial crystals are meld by a blast furnace and the force sensitive meditate for 7 or more sittings for at least 7-8 days or more to form the crystal, it's not just the Sith it's also Luke Skywalker.

    The color of Red is not simply a symbolic representation of the Dark Side as a lightsaber color, but more importantly, it represents that which the Sith embrace whereas the Jedi avoid or even deny.
    Passion.
    The Sith embrace passionate emotion to facilitate their power, but it is the Dark Side that twists and even perverts that passion into the realm of the negative: Fear, Anger, Hate, and Suffering.
    Any negative emotion at all, combined with passion, can be poisoned by the Dark Side, driving a Sith to near madness or zealotry, allowing their emotions not just to augment their power but also possibly rule them. Even the strongest and wisest Sith are subject to this weakness, even at minimal effect, letting it seep into their restraint and nudge them towards arrogance, carelessness, narcissism, and egocentric selfishness that they become blinded to even the smallest possibilities of their enemies potential to turn the tables and defeat them.
    Sidious, the culmination of the Rule of Two, showed that even he was susceptible to this weakness when he was torturing Luke, never considering his joke of an apprentice, Vader, would turn against him in that pivotal moment, only for Vader, reclaiming his identity as Anakin Skywalker, moved by the faith and love of his son, to seize the man responsible for all the pain and suffering and loss in his life and then throw him to his demise
    Even this emphatic defeat did not teach Sidious a lesson, for when he returned and thot had he triumphed with his Final Order and believed his granddaughter could not defeat him Rey proved him wrong by channeling the Dyad in the Force she shared with Ben Solo, as well as the wisdom, strength, and guidance of the Jedi who came before her, to turn Sidious' power back upon himself, destroying him and the Sith once and for all
    Passion is what underlies the emotions of the Sith but their abuse of the Dark Side warps and corrupts them, transforming them into prisoners of their own twisted delusions.
    The Red Lightsaber is indeed the symbolic torch of the blazing Dark Side within the Sith, but is also radiates with their own arrogance that blinds them to their flaws, their shortcomings, and their weaknesses or else their enemies' ability to defeat the Sith

      As far as I'm concerned, Legends is Canon. "Bleeding" your crystal is such an edgy tween thing. "Gah, I'm so angry! I'm going to dramatically take apart my lightsaber so I can make my crystal feel my pain and suffer with me because I'm a Sith now." It's just so dumb. Also, writers are constantly adding stuff from legends back into the canon because that's where all the good content actually is. It's very telling that Disney has done pretty much nothing with the sequels era once they finished the third movie. The original canon is actually well thought out and everybody knows it. I'd almost bet that they'll eventually retcon the whole bleeding thing in a couple years.

    I disagree with you I have made made synthetic crystals in the lab the atomic structure can be made perfectly as such there are no imperfections that would hinder the flow of power. A natural crystal would have flaws and inclusions which may interfere with the flow of power. When a Jedi is at peace then the flow of power obeys the will of the force strong emotions concentration and the flaws in the crystal weakens the power out put. The flaws are necessary in a natural crystal to keep the crystal stable. When a crystal is bled the force is used to change the alignment of the atoms of the Crystal like straightening a river to increase the flow of water no matter what the does to the crystal. Bled crystals are always unstable because the crystal is not meant to be that way. the weaker the sith the more unstable the crystal because it wants to go back to it's natural form

      I was a teenager and I grew up here in Australia and then, as now, it was pretty rare to find another young bloke or Sheila who had EVER read, or even owned a full length comic or "illustrated novel" if you like, of any kind.
      Even a Batman, Superman or Spiderman enthusiast was a very, very rare thing. And NOT because of "bullying" either. I can only really put it down to being a "cultural difference," though why or how this specific difference came about, I can't seem to say.
      It would be a great thing for the subject of a University Paper, though.
      You could title it something like "why Aussies don't give a Rat's .... about Comics, the self-important little snotrags, wait till I get 'em out on the Rugby Paddock then we'll see who gives a ..
      Blah, blah, blah, blah etc etc" or ...
      "Why Australian teenagers don't seem to care for Comics"
