Not just deprefer. Without user consent there should be NO usage of steps AT ALL. Which would be inline with the osm wiki which says "access=no/foot=yes" as implicit defaults. There may be a "rail" which is okay for your city bike, not okay with a child trailer or for me with a lot of Bikepacking gear on the bike for a multi-week trip. But still using a rail should be an option to select for the routing profile not just assume that aunt tilly can carry her 30kg ebike up steep steps on a rail.
