Because that would be too corny
One of the biggest, most famous corn maze attractions is called The Amazing Maize Maze
A maizing mazing question.
My wife said because the answer is just, No.
A maize labyrinth would be better
Only if there’s one path, no dead ends. A maze branches, a labyrinth doesn’t and only winds around as one long path.
What an amaizing shower thought
Because they were made from sheafs of wheat in the past.
“Corn” was the name for any grain in Britain.
Because maize maze sounds like the start of a tongue-twister and Americans are lazy with talking.
Because that would be confusing
It’s called a maizmorra
They do, infact, call them a maize maze. This one is near my house and they change it up every year. It’s really good fun.

Because it’s called corn in America.
You should ask the natives of the continent about that
You know the only continent humans are native to is Africa, right?
Indigenous is more correct because that involves the land changing someone, not just something coming from there.
You should ask Native Americans about that
They don’t call themselves that, they call themselves by their individual tribe names…
They’re not one bulk people.
You’re right, as a group of people they prefer the term American Indian, but I’m not going to go and say “your should ask the Indians about that” because that sounds as stupid as whatever your argument is.
Which was I think about using “native” instead of “indiginous”, which are literally synonyms in the context.

From my first reply:

You might not be aware of every pedantic difference, I didn’t assume anyone would, that’s why I explicitly stated it
Feel free to Google and check my work, but this isn’t an argument someone can win, words have meaning.
They are just earlier migrants :p
As someone who lives solidly in corn maze country, this is a well used joke whenever the topic of corn mazes comes up. Which means I hear it about twice a week throughout the fall.
