Imagine how fast that guy could go if he devoted his life to building performance accessibility aids instead of pursuing physics. He probably would have robotic cybernetic legs that outperformed any human runners.
Unless he was as skilled in robotics and engineering as a fish was at climbing trees.

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.

Free gravel for life could be a game changer.
You still pay the shipping fees.

Unless your body is less than 7 inches wide, all but the first and third one of those is going to involve nightmarish scenarios of walls, clothes, etc. getting stuck in your body.
Does momentum reset after a teleport? Could I jump off a cliff and teleport left and right like going down stairs?

3 would get you through almost any door. Definitely my choice.
7 though, this would make you a star in the DEA. Imagine seeing inside everyone's tires, and then you find one you can't see inside. "Whatcha got in those tires, son?" I'm sure there could be other uses.
2, you could run a business on free gravel but you're mostly paying for processing and delivery so you would only have a small edge on your competition. It's still a lot of work and big heavy expensive trucks.

Gravel can be turned into sand. Sand can be turned into concrete and glass. So this one scales pretty quickly.
On the other hand, all I have to do is build a single toaster robot that can build other toaster robots and I’m on my way to toaster robot army.
Just overload the toasters of your enemies and burn down their houses

Can I take a pill that gives me a whole sub for discussing these?

The pill said nothing about that.

This free gravel, can I summon it whenever and wherever I want, or do I have to wait for it to be delivered? If it’s the latter, I will take Khitan. Resurrecting a dead language sounds fun.

I thought the same thing about 3 until I realized that I’m more than 7 inches tall/wide/deep, so I can’t actually pass through anything, just get horribly mangled when I make it halfway through the door.
Now here’s the million dollar question:
how many times per second can I teleport?
Because if I can teleport at let’s say 1khz… now we’re talking -
Easy, free gravel. Become a gravel salesman.
Would be interesting to see how it appears though. Can I get to just point to a spot and suddenly gravel? If so, charge people for the show too. Just rock up to their house, point at the driveway and boom, gravel. Easy money.
Added bonus: don’t like someone? Boom, house literally full of gravel.
Gravel.
The bonus is just how I kill people in minecraft.

Better not have gotten that gravel for free else no teleport.
Don't need magic powers to get free gravel, just need a little tongue work

Depends on what is meant by "free gravel", though. Given the effects of the other pills, it gives me the impression I can just summon gravel on command. In which case, I'd only have to pay for my own transportation.

ANY toaster. If you go to a wedding or any formal event with drinks, you can control whoever's giving the toast. That could be pretty powerful.
Also, anything that generates enough heat in the presence of bread is, in fact, a toaster.

Then teleport again

Star Trek teleportation might also be a bit murdery. You are disassembled to your molecules, sent over in a high energy beam and reassembled. Also there's a mild risk to end up in an evil mirror universe.
What if we instead destroy the rest of the universe, killing everyone else in the process, then rebuild it exactly as it was save for seven inches to the left?

3 and 5 can be overpowered if the superpower has no cooldown or limit
2, 7, 8 can assure you big wealth in some jobs
1, 4, 6 doesn't appear to be very useful, and having a second nose could be quite inconvenient on the forehead, in the armpit or above the arse, while being very parasocial
9: While i think running at the speed of albert einstein relative to the earth would be kind of meh, i would reconsider if it is Albert's running speed relative to the moon

Teleport 7 inches away easy lock in:
Teleport up 7 inches on a generator perpetual motion machine.
Walk through thin walls / safes.
Repeatedly teleport forwards never have to walk again.
Teleport out of bed every morning.
Teleport out of clothes at night / sexy times
Look cool AF.
Hell, not even that. You could become a world class boxer or UFC fighter. You can basically slip any punch or attack instantly and you can teleport your fists into the sweet spot to score a knockout. You would be an amazing baseball player as well, you can teleport to perfectly hit any ball at just the right angle. As a quarterback you would be insane too, you can readjust to any play instantly. In fencing you'd basically be unstoppable, you can dodge everything. For any sport or physical activity being able to teleport 7 inches is insanely overpowered. The person who came up with this doesn't play any sports.
