That’s a great question. I’m glad that you brought that up. Because this is not the only entrance to that house, and this is a retrofit to a much older structure, the homeowners opted for this style of handrail. To provide that tactile feedback for anyone sight or mobility impaired, I did try to keep the standoffs as close to the end of the handrails as possible. If this were being done for a public building, I would expect the inspector may have asked for a little more.

Is there a code requirement for how big a gap to leave between the guard rail and hand rail?

The code here is worded such that there can be no obstruction to gripping the handrail and that it is continuous. Check your local code to double check how yours is worded. Some inspectors are pretty particular and others just apply common sense.
