Apparently, a universal law of nature dictates that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. I've never tested this myself, but will rely on the word of the scientific community. They have rarely disappointed me. Anyway, I'd like the caloric impact of cheese, mushrooms, onions and tomato sauce (think pizza) to be canceled by drinking a glass of wine with the meal. I wouldn't expect the dough to be canceled; after all, we need some accountability.
Assuming you could make this work for Earth 2.0, what's to stop you from duplicating it with cheese cake and coffee, ice cream and mineral water, or (don't laugh) earning the right to temporarily escape the pull of gravity every time you place the needs of others before your own? I'm not suggesting the latter in order to mock your universal laws, but simply to allow people to reach their destination faster if they're pressed for time. Or -- I just thought of this! -- to give wheelchair-confined people a more impressive mode of travel. Kind of make up for the inequity.
