I have named your stairs
If you don't have any in your home, tough.
From the entrance level, stairs that go up shall be named thusly: 1: Potato 2: Duck 3: Musketeer 4: Skin 5: Alive 6: Sex 7: Down 8: Snowman 9: Cat 10: Der 11: Legs 12: Eggs 13: monster ...And stairs that go down..... 1: Day 2: Laxative 3: Imelda 4: Tune 5: Vwls 6: T9 7: Reflex 8: Infinite 9: No 10: Boris 11: Oneteen 12: Poodles 13: Hand Basket If you have 14+ stairs in any one flight, you are weird and live in a lighthouse and all remaining stairs are called Bob. Except for that one.

You've solved my problem before I recognized it.

This checks out. I know a guy who used to work in this field.

You don't wait for a cut before buying a bandaid, good to have this information in your bug-out bag.

That's a much better stairs naming scheme than mine which bears only a slight resemblance to yours:
1: Potato 2: Potato 3: Potato 4: 5: Potato 6: Potato 7: Potato More... |

How can stairs be more than one syllable?

Well, some of our stairs were not built by expert craftspeople such as yourself. Some identify as more than one syllable. Some are old. Some are so good one needs to linger on them or the memory of them lingers. Some dream of a life in politics. Some are in rooms that create echoes. And some are in The Southern States of the USA, where nothing has only one syllable.

But did you hear the tragic story of the lighthouse keeper who ran up the stairs too fast and screwed himself into the ceiling?
(Posting from a stair free zone BTW).
