It doesn’t say the quantity, though. It might be a very small amount every so often. But, if that’s not the case, and if we also get to choose where the gravel appears, then I’m using it to construct a man made island out in international waters.

I would be the Gravel King. You need gravel, you come to me. I would be a benevolent king though. I would grant gravel to those that need it.

Yeah, the devil is in the details. Is there a cooldown? Are there quantity limitations? Location could be interesting because you could put ten tons of gravel a mile high and drop it. You could have Nasa pay you to quickly assemble a compacted gravel mini-moon at a lagrange point for a space dock.

Or maybe you get gravel in the same sense that someone could own Jupiter or a star. “You now own all the gravel in that quary!” But it doesn’t inform the workers of that fact, or the officials who still rely on whatever paperwork was filled out by the agents of the guy who paid them to ensure the quary belongs to his corporation’s corporation. The whole idea of ownership is pretty abstract in the first place.
Could be that every pill just means that, under the jurisdiction of the entity who made the pills, you are legally allowed to do what the pills claim, though you need to figure out the rest from there, and people from other jurisdictions are able to disagree even if you do figure out the how.
