[Building] Inconsistent staircase railings
Far too many staircase railings are wildly inconsistent with their respective fences. I'm making this thread in an attempt to document some of the issues.
1. Half-level fences don't blend together
Compare the fences on the side of the half-floor with the fences on the adjacent foundation. Notice that the fence segments on the foundations connect together, whereas the fences on the staircase half-level don't.
This is an issue for all staircases, so I will not be listing any more staircases with this issue alone.
2. Taller bottom railing posts
This issue is second only to the half-level issue, occurring in almost all staircases. I understand why this particular issue might be difficult to fix, due to the increased elevation of the stairs (duh), but it's still somewhat annoying to look at.
What's a bit less of a minor issue though...
3. Too small top railing posts

The first one I initially categorized as too large bottom posts, because the ridiculously tiny top posts made me wrongly assume that it was intended for a different fence...
And whenever I tried to use the glass railing with rounded posts, or any of these for that matter, the top railing post always replaces the fence post, and it's always annoying to look at due to the railing post being noticeably smaller than the fence posts.
This is the third most common issue, where the top railing post should be exactly the same size as the fence post, but it's either much, much tinier, or just slightly smaller.
Some other less jarring but still noticeable examples:
4. Too small bottom railing posts
The opposite of the issue with too large bottom railing posts, the bottom posts of this railing are ridiculously small. This is, for once, an unique issue, but possibly one of the most horrible to look at.
5. Inconsistent glass height
As if bent on depriving us of functional glass railings, the other one is inconsistent too, with the railing glass being noticeably lower than the fence glass.
Ultimately, there's only one railing that has no issues and inconsistencies, and that's the Industrial railing.
Look at this beauty. Connecting so perfectly. If only all staircase railings could be like this.
