I suggest that there be a wider variety of stairs and slabs in Minecraft. We have 14 different types of stairs and slabs and at least 100 different blocks. That's a problem. I don't think all the blocks should have stairs and slabs since that would take up space in our inventory, but the selection we have available right now is very limited. Buildings could be improved greatly if builders had more of a variety when building. Again, I'm not asking for every type of block to be made into stairs and slabs. I'm just talking about a few blocks in particular.
The Specifics
Obsidian:The darkest stair block we have is nether brick, and I think most of us can agree that a black stair and slab block would be useful. When building obsidian structures, people usually use nether brick stairs and slabs for decoration. It looks decent most of the time, but it would be great to be able to use black, indestructible slabs and stairs.
Granite, Andesite, and Diorite:The polished versions of these blocks should have slabs and stairs. So far, these blocks are only used for decoration, and are not even a widely-used decoration block. They are so common, and since there is no other use for them, they should be easier to decorate with and have the ability to be used for stairs and slabs.
End Bricks:What's the purpose of end bricks? Decoration. How could they be decoration blocks without stairs and slabs to go along with them?
Feel free to suggest more stair and slab blocks, and tell me what you think of this idea.
Yeah, that guy in the avatar is me. I'm *that* strange. It happens. Sometimes people act like that. Just go with it. I can offer help with suggestions even before you post them - NOT make your suggestions - but help you with them.

I think there should be a wider variety of stairs and slabs in Minecraft. We have 14 different types of stairs and slabs and at least 100 different blocks That's way to far.

When building obsidian structures, people usually use nether brick stairs and slabs for decoration. It looks decent most of the time, but it would be great to be able to use obsidian slabs and stairs I would have no time to mine all the obsidian.
Iron: Many structures made in creative mode use iron blocks as the main building material. Stairs and slabs would improve these structures Expensive really expensive.
Granite, Andesite, and Diorite: The polished versions of these blocks should have slabs and stairs. So far, these blocks are only used for decoration. Since there is no other use for them, they should be easier to decorate with and have the ability to be used for stairs and slabs I really like this one.
There are many, many people who do. Think of all the map builders, whether it be adventure maps or just creations.
Personally, as I play survival and creative, I can see many uses for this, like just adding decorations to my house, or making stairs and slabs that match the rest of my build.
Support.
Did I not already post this, or did I somehow manage to reply to the wrong thread, or have I just gone insane?
Anyway, I really like it. Mig/ht I suggest, however, adding slabs and stairs for all compact resource blocks (Coal/Redstone/Iron/Gold/Emerald/Diamond), all Log varieties and Glass

Thank you! I don't know about glass and logs, but I like the idea of the compact ore blocks. I'll add those and see how other people like it.
But most of these blocks don't tile together very well.
Stone bricks and cobblestone and planks tile together.
Metal blocks and the decorative "ite" blocks do not tile together because they all have outlines on each block that make structures look absolutely horrendous.
I made a suggestion about this before, primarily concerning that we don't have slabs or stairs for prismarine. Also, slabs and stairs for end bricks would be nice. On the other hand, I don't really see the use in slabs of the minerals. Support for everything else though!

Point made, I'll remove the ore blocks and add the end stone bricks.

I see your point about the materials being hard to get. Maybe it would still be useful in creative mode.

Thank you for the support! I'll admit, iron and quartz are similar, I didn't think of that. I'll leave it for now, though.

I would support this-
