one option might be to have the handrails independent of the riser sections. you could create a stair assembly from whatever your stair setup is (like a component with unified stair metadata inside it), then add the handrails over the entire structure - which could be a continuous rail or segmented, etc. might be easier to code it this way by reading the overall stair assembly metadata and use that to generate the handrails.

Is there a way to increase the size of the top-landing or intermediate-landings so that the nosings are one tread dim offset ?
That way the handrail turns properly - smoothly without a vertical drop.
Some localities' codes require the landings to be a tread or 300mm bigger than the stair's width.
Also extending the handrail a similar amount at the top and bottom is required...Separately... the FollowMe twisting of the profile along complex paths is longstanding.
Extensions like Upright Extruder sidestep this; so you need to emulate those... -

@TIG The landings are not super sophisticated yet, mostly place holders. Still a bit of work to do on them.
The drop on the handrails (over-the-post) is fairly typical from what I've seen. I'm getting most of my reference material from ljsmith.com
