We call them “spiral staircases” yet rarely do they actually contain a single spiral - but they do have a helix. I guess “helical staircase” was just too much for people to care about as the term embedded in the 1600s. Previously they’d been winding stairs, screw stairs, and earlier yet just a “vice”, so common were they. Weird how language adapts to what’s easy rather than what’s correct.
Look, I know ads are the mechanism for some sites. And I don’t normally “this site gave my phone cancer”.. but on IOS with blockers, everything except the text on the site can go fuck itself.
Been to the top of the Eiffel, it was a long enough set of elevator rides to flirt with and eventually date a French girl. So that probably wouldn’t have happened on stairs.
FWIW, on android with firefox + ublock origin it's clean from ads.
On iOS with firefox it's filled with ads; with firefox focus it's mostly clean but you get a dismissable "please disable adblocker" style prompt I didn't get on android. I don't know if there's a browser with a good adblocker allowed in iOS walled garden, but I'd be happy for suggestions
A guardrail isn't a safety barrier? The photos of the staircase don't look like star wars walkways to me at all.
