They aren’t. Boxelder is different than kissing bug
Weirdly I just learned all about boxelders the other day when one appeared on my desk. There’s a Reddit thread really similar to this one with people trying to explain that boxelders aren’t the same bug lol
Read the link you posted and look at the name of the bug. The page has both the scientific and common name. Now look up boxelders and see if it matches

Whatever you say bud. I’m not taking any chances with that shitty heart disease. I choose life, thank you very much.
