> the mazes from this site are not free to use for commercial purposes. If you are planning to use them in something you will sell, you need to get a commercial license. There are already several online maze generator whose output is free for commercial use. What's so special about this one?

Which ones? Can you show an example of such a maze generator? It’s hard to compare otherwise.

      Uncanny how two UIs for a program with a small number of parameters, which output the same kind of thing, can look so similar. I call shenanigans!

Probably the author being annoyed by their website being recommended by someone for generating "passive income" based on someone else's labor.

  I agree and it's certainly their perogative and one should respect it. That said, how are people using this to generate any income at all? Printing out and selling mazes? How big can that market be?

Doesn't have to be special, the creator just wants to be compensated if you're using it for commercial use. You're free to go to other creators if you want.
