Nothing canned... the syrup will be bad to the taste.
Whole sweet potatoes should be a different thing.

This explains why people buy 100 & 120 quart pots. I guess I’m traditional, small red potatoes, corn, garlic, and lemons.

I'm curious about whether a whole sweet potato will cook in the time it takes to do a batch of crawfish. I'm far from an expert but in my experience sweet ptatatoes take a long time to cook.

"Over-thinking" is literally throwing an additional vegetable in the pot? Nobody is forcing you to do it. I'd argue that you are under-thinking the potential of other vegetables that taste awesome in a crawfish boil. And some people are tired of eating potatoes and corn for 20, 30, 40+ years.

We put one in the boil this weekend based on this thread. Cut into 1 inch thick circles and threw in at same time as crawfish. They came out perfectly. It was delicious, 10/10 will do again.
