The current recipe for crafting any type of stairs is totally nonsensical. You should be able to put three blocks in the crafting table in an L-shape and get four stairs back.
Here's why:
Firstly, the shape of the stairs on the crafting table doesn't look the same as the shape of the block. Minecraft stairs are L shaped, and the crafting recipe for stairs is not so.
Also, you don't get the amount of stairs from crafting that would be realistic. The ratio of blocks put into the crafting table to stair blocks obtained should be 3:4. The current ratio is 6:4.
Here is my reasoning: Every stair block is 3/4 the size of a normal block. That means that after making one stair block out of one full block, you'd have a fourth of a block left over. Then, if you were to make three blocks into stairs, you'd have three fourth's of a block left over, which you could combine into another stair.
UPDATE (August 9th, 2019)
Recently, Mojang introduced a new set of blocks called the Stonecutter, Smithing Table, and Fletching Table. By using these items, you can get a better deal on stairs than you would in a crafting table. The ratio of blocks to stairs with these tables is 1:1 (For every one block you put in, you get one stair.) However, that still isn't perfect. I hope that with the crafting table, we can achieve a 3:3 block to stair ratio and with stonecutters, we can get 3:4.

Yeah it’s quite annyoing especially if you like to build houses in survivals.

@Oakleaf30 agreed.
-
This is what we need! It makes complete sense, it would be so easy to implement, and as a survival builder, this would make my process so much more efficient!
-
Agreed! Stairs have always felt very costly to make relative to slabs and full blocks.
-
I totally agree with your suggestion,Please Mojang Change it!

Yes yes yes yes yes!

I have thought the same thing forever now. The stair recipe currently gives fewer stairs than blocks you put in which is actually pretty crazy. That means for 4 blocks you lose 1/4 of the block, and for two blocks, you lose the entire block. They really should either change the output to 8 stairs for the current recipe or, as you said, change the recipe to 3 blocks and keep the current output, but as of now, making stairs is way too expensive for what they are worth.

YASS! Every time I craft a set of stairs I feel like I'm getting ripped off. This needs to be seen more. I feel like if everyone saw this everyone would vote on it.

I also have a same idea as yours. Hey! I also have another recipe planned. I hope this picture will give you more ideas on your suggestion.
