There are a number of kinds of corn; but, whether there are multiple species is something else altogether. There are differences between dogs, they are all dogs. You get differences in corn and want multiple species.. We care.

Corn turning into corn isn't speciation. Corn growing wings or a mouth might be. Absurd examples; but, suitable. Go for it sparky.

"There are a number of kinds of corn;..."

*Kinds* isn't a meaningful scientific term. The word is species.

"Corn turning into corn isn't speciation."

It is when one species (population within a species to be more precise) becomes a new one. Again, there are more than one species of corn.

"Corn growing wings or a mouth might be. Absurd examples; but, suitable. "

You've just lost the debate.

I'm with you. For example, there are a number of kinds of primates, but they're all just primates. Lemurs, monkeys, gibbons, orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, humans -- call 'em whatever you want. They're primates, plain and simple, and no amount of fancy footwork can change that. Right?
