If anything, what Karura did is more like what Minato and Kushina did. Her will/chakra is in Gaara's sand and protects him, this has absolutely nothing to do with Shukaku or even Gaara. Karura's will is doing the protecting. ... Is that somehow different from what I just said? It's all there, we know people can do these things, it's well established, we were told Karura is the reason for the sand shield, we just don't know the process by which is was achieved.

Again, not using this as evidence of Magnet Release, but, particularly with Elveonora, just because you disagree about the correlation between the rings and magnet release, doesn't remove the possibility that Gaara had the Sand Shield from birth because it was his mother's doing and not his.
