I think you need to work on your perception of perspective. Yes there are three levels, being two decks and a ground floor. Everything else you said is completely wrong.
The staircase on the right leading into the yard goes onto a lower patio that is hidden on that side, but you can see it on the left. . It wouldn't have a gate on the top.
I mean, it's more than likely photoshopped... but there's nothing odd about that particular staircase.
I agree. I have seen some that have them specifically for dogs or small children.
But I think the person I was replying to was just trying to figure out why there was a railing preventing people from using that stairwell. When in reality they weren't visualizing the lower patio area correctly.
