Think this is working as intended.
What the Steps slider is doing is determine a distance to the last mouse position.
Whenever this distance is reached, a new set of hairs will be created inbetween current and last mouse position.
The amount of hairs on that "line" is determined by the brush radius.

For reference, check https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/master/source/blender/editors/physics/particle_edit.c$4739

Makes sense?

Thanks @Philipp Oeser (lichtwerk) . Indeed looks expected.
One thing we probably can do is improve tooltip. Brush steps doesn't sound very clear description, I think.
