Think if Galadriel were offered the Ring sooner? It might not have been as tempting. As LoAL states, she is tested when she has pretty much lost everything, and obviously can see the end of her little patch of green.
The other thought that comes to mind regarding Boromir and the Ring, is that no one, even if initially he/she intends it, would ever beat this sword into a plowshare when the war was won. With Sauron thrown down, Dark Lord Boromir would have sought more enemies.
