What about time?

An aribtrarily small G will take an almost infinite time to manifest
itself. Weaker gravity will EVENTUALLY get matter clumpy but if gravity
is weak, it will take MUCH more time for gravity effects to manifest
themselves.

An arbitrarily small gravity will take arbitrarily long time to have any
effect.

Does the contradiction disappear if we take time into the picture?

Thermodynamics generally does not care,
what time it takes for a system
to get into the preferred final state.
