Inconsistent step size behaviour when step size is not a divisor of (max - min)

[peaches1307]

Expected behavior

I would expect to the chart to use the stepsize as long as possible and shrink the last interval: So if I have a chart with min:0, max:333 and stepSize: 50 it should:

• start from 0
• have ticks every 50 (0, 50, 100, 150, ...) with
• have a smaller interval up to the defined max (250, 300, 333)

Current behavior

For smaller numbers, e.g. min:0, max:333 and stepSize: 50 the charts behaves as I would expect it.

But If I use bigger numbers with the same ratio: e.g. min: 0, max: 3333 and stepSize: 500 the charts distributes evently with 476,1 without considering my stepsize of 500 (476,1, 952,3, 1428,4, ...) : https://codepen.io/Pia-Gerhofer/pen/LENMKOO

Context

We can't really use suggestedMin/suggestedMax because we want our users to decide which y-axis range they want to see currently and we want control over the stepsize at the same time.
