That sounds too arbitrary.

Abusable... have a small number of cities.  It also makes the game
unnecessarily difficult for people with large numbers of cities.

If you change the rule to "You get the Pyramids when you've built 6
Granaries" (for example) then you make it impossible to get for players
with less than 6 cities (unless you allow multiple Granaries in a
single city?).

I think it should be left as is.

But then what would be the point of Marco Polo's Embassy?
