I got to hand cut the stringers. I measured everything out with a framing square. It was all very confusing and then it just clicked, so that’s nice.

Affects throat depth and the square cut is a split point. If the front of the stinger by riser gets loaded, those stairs are done.
But if the whole weight of the bottom run is flat/supported it should not matter that much.
I see your point though, they shouldn’t have done it.
I live where there is frost, it’s shifting no matter how well you did the base. It’s unlikely to be a problem, especially with how small it is. But it’s also fixable with screwing a board on the inside like a double stinger.
Even melting snow can refreeze and put pressure on the front, since that could be the only place melting.
