He was able to resist lust damage (and lust effects?) before he got the shard too. Simon is basically a turtle that is also a tactician and a politician. It could just be that's the way his soul is, strong on defense but lacking in offense. Also why wasn't he put in a position of command during the war? It seems like a natural fit for someone like him. Of course him being put into a position like that and then making a costly mistake might be why Geoff bears such a grudge. don't forget the timeline, the war start near 40 year ago, simon barely teen, and end a decade after, he don't have the age and the experience to rise in a position of command, i think the grudge with geoff is related to another, and more recent, event, can be the crypt in zirantia or the 'works' with sarai (don't think is the same episode)

PS: yes simon is immune to lust effect even before the shard
