That was a-maze-ing

This is a labyrinth. Not a maze.

I mean, the point is that people wanting a drink need to walk a long way from the road, to discourage drinking and driving. This works

This probably solves the issue caused by having them close to the road so it was accepted, they followed the point of the law not the words.

Yup, which is how laws should be followed and enforced, otherwise you literally miss the point.

WRONG. oxford literally uses the word maze as part of the definition of Labyrinth, therefore in English there is no difference.

This might be news for you, but many languages have a variation of "labyrinthus". Very few use "maze".

9 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

That's a prescriptive definition and does not follow actual usage. Descriptively, the only difference is that labyrinth is a prestige word.
