Can someone explain what went wrong ( malted corn)

By law to be labeled "Bourbon" the liquor has to be at least 50% corn. This tells me that at some point people were using less corn and a wider variety of grains to make what was called "bourbon". If they were using less corn I expect it was to enhance conversion efficiency.
