I like this. I looked up the story of the minotaur on Wikipedia, and ended up on the linked page on "Ariadne's thread (logic)."

"...named for the legend of Ariadne, is the solving of a problem with multiple apparent means of proceeding - such as a physical maze, a logic puzzle, or an ethical dilemma".

Now the name of Ariadne from Inception, who was adept at creating mazes, makes sense.

On topic: it was Hansel and Gretel that I remembered when first encountering the term Breadcrumb trail, and helped me understand it's purpose.
