This is not a correct taxon swap. Aletes humilis is a different than Cymopterus humilis. Though Aletes might be a bad genus, than the epithet needs to be changed. The C. humilis only exist on pikes peak. Aletes humilis lives only in northern Colorado. It is a good species split, but the Boulder County observations need to be looked at.
Hi, @hikerstephen. Sorry about the late response. I trust your assertion, but do you have a source I can look at for context? I also recommend emailing Kew's Plants of the World Online at bi@kew.org on this matter - undesirable or erroneous changes like this are less likely if the changes wanted are suggested to our primary reference for plant taxonomy.
The first two shows it in the plants of the world.
