Stairs can be much steeper, thus take up a lot less floor space inside the home. There are standards for slope of a ramp. Look at [this image of an accessibility ramp to get up a 2-step stoop](https://assets-global.website-files.com/5f99da1bdbd4ceb10ea49ca5/60272b35a09dbb609fc6dfb5_ramp-incline-calc_portable.jpg) and notice how much more room the ramp needs — and this is for just 2 steps! Now imagine a standard staircase of like 14 steps.
