I think I would have said lobster maki if I had that in mind. :)
In any case, he and I are being pedants at each other in comments. He's much funnier than I am; I'm just riffing.
Moreover, there's nowhere near as much controversy as to what goes into a lobster maki. I think partly it's because the Atlantic lobster isn't a part of traditional Japanese cuisine. But even the Japanese Spiny Lobster, which is part of traditional Japanese cuisine, isn't normally served as maki. Or so says http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/イセエビ, which mentions a variety of ways to prepare spiny lobster, none of them as maki.

Alas. Might have made a funny followup poll.
