I think that the ladder manifacturers should also be taken to task, when I started out in the good old days, I had to lug around a pair of Wooden Steps which were very heavy.
They were of course replaced by aliminum ladders, which I have to say appeard to be made out of better thicker aliminum that the ones that the trades use today. because people who have to carry ladders as part of their job prefer weight to safety, they will go for the lightest steps they an find.
It is worth pointing out that even brand new aliminum steps can twist and move because there simply isn't the weight in them to stop them from doing so, and a accident can be the result of the steps moving or twisting and the user doing anything wrong.
