This is what I would call the perfect example of a non required stair. It
isn't enclosed, would not provide FF protection, nor be usable for fighting
the fire. Now should there be a hose station at the top or near the bottom
of this stair anyway? Maybe.

Grand open staircase in the center of the building - in the
language of the code, a "convenience stair".   The three required exits
are all conventional shafts and scattered around the building.   I can
show you plenty more where that one came from ...
