It would be a little odd to wear a shirt that said "I'm not a heroine addict," but these days, there are lots of folks that are rabidly against getting the covid jab.

I've read that for a very long time there have been standards or, at least, best practices around stair layout. Apparently, one of the items (besides ranges/ratios for tread depth and riser height) is that they need to be consistent. So If they all measure 6" tall, but then one is 6.5" tall, you end up with a big trip hazard.
None of the stairs in my place are consistent. The top step is 6" tall, the rest are 7-9". Most of them are 11-11.25" deep at least.
But the worst part is where they put winders in. And the piece de resistance is that the smallest, most awkward winder is also the tallest of all of the steps at 9".

Max riser height is 7-3/4”. Minimum tread depth, measured nose to nose is 10”. The nosing is 3/4” to 1-1/4 inches. Each with a maximum variance of 3/8”.
I never really paid attention to that, as most inspectors check a couple of treads standing up with a tape measure. The county I’m building in now, must’ve had some kind of lawsuit. They check every riser, tread, and nosing with tape measures and squares. Interior and exterior.
With so many people don’t understand is, that 7-3/4” is the maximum. It can be 5, 6, 7 inches, etc. as long as they are within 3/8” variance between all of them. At least, that’s my interpretation.
Winders add to the equation, but there’s a minimum depth near the narrow part. I haven’t done one in ages, so I don’t remember.
