I think they do that in castles steps as well. To slow down invading.

I enjoy the idea that some shitass mason hated whatever king hired him, built all the stairs as quickly and poorly as possible, and then to save his ass later had to be all "oh hmm yes the stairs? That's a feature actually" and somehow it winds up catching on

I think they did that in castles, because it's generally pretty hard to build castles. If the enemy is inside the walls you are practically done anyway.
