I think it's a good nudge tbh. Stairs are proven again and again to be an incredibly healthy workout given that you don't have issues with your knees.
I just came back from Japan and 20k steps a day and hundreds of stairs for a month really put me in shape and made me realize how important good shoes are lol
While I agree if you can take the stairs you should, however it really breeds ridicule if you are overweight and can't do it
I think its a very good point. We should probably figure out how to distinguish representation here between "I'm not taking stair" sort of fat and healthy. Maybe it would make more sense to use a carrot here and instead if skinny stick man have a health symbol like a literal carrot maybe idk
