English isn't my first language, but don't ladders have rungs, not steps? Steps is for stairs, no?

Either word works. It's hyper-specific but I would say that most people would say "rung" in reference to the physical part of the ladder while "step" would be the part of the ladder they were on.

Again, either word works fine and nobody would bat an eye if either were used.

Good question!
