One question I still have is if steppers can both spin and step, why do both steppers and BLDC motors exist? I seems the stepper is more versatile.


Steppers are not nearly as efficient and have horrible power to weight ratio.   They also cost more for a given power.  You pay a lot in cost, size, weight and power for the very fine control they give you.   The conventional BLDC is what makes electric vehicles possible, even electric aircraft.
