You wouldn't *seriously* consider driving up or down a flight of
steps...surely??

No. The highway key is a group of tags, some of which would imply you can
drive on, some you cannot. In England, a public highway could include a
narrow footpath through a field, where cars are forbidden and it could be
completely unsuitable for vehicles - up to an 8-lane motorway, where
pedestrians are forbidden.
The only ones I'd consider that a car could route over would be
highway= motorway
trunk
primary
secondary
tertiary
unclassified
service
With the possible addition of
track or byway as a last resort
