It's simply ancients logic, a thing that venat was good at. So good infact that they gave her white robes to show everyone how good she was at ancients logic.
The white robes were just a sign of seniority for former Convocation members who chose not to return the star immediately after they retired.

And sure, if they had collectively agreed as a society to go through with the Sundering, then I would've been A-OK with it, but rather she simply decided she knew better then...basically everyone else because she didn't trust even her closest followers with the truth.
