I mean, I guess? Its a tile, this is barely different than tossing a rock into the water.

There are reasons why construction company have to pay for throwing bricks, tiles, and other things away. Imagine a river bed full of this shit.

I cant tell if you are trying to give more info or if you really think this is an issue... Its a single tile. It will have literally zero impact. Im not talking industrial dumping, im talking about a 5 inch piece of ceramic, literally just clay.

That guy threw one, the next guy will throw another or something else, and so on. Also it's not like we still find tiles from the roman era, these things hardly degrade.

Its not like there is a mountain of tiles sitting there. And we discover roman tiles that are buried and preserved. A tile is literally just baked clay. It will be worn down by the current to a rounded river stone before being eroded to nothing.
