several the same
This one looks like Tony's and Tom's and mine and your other one and Cedar Creek's specimen of Stenotus binotatus.
There's only one species of Stenotus in North America, and I think that's what we all have here.

Is this enough to go ahead and move them to species level? The level of certainty seems high enough.

Eventually:-)
One of us will get around to going over some of the mirids here in more detail eventually! Update: I agree with Stenotus binotatus, creating a guide page.
