Re: Exterior steps
Sort of correct.

Handrails must be returned.

To the wall, guardrail, floor, or a newel post.

That handrail was not originally returned, someone tried to 'return' it and did a hack job.

Not good the way it is in the photo.

They had the right idea, but their execution of it was was off. Besides, those are "handrail brackets', not "handrail returns".
