Tony, there's a case. I have left a comment, so that the user makes the correction. But in some cases it seems that the user started to post and then stopped. The error will remain. Follow the link for one of the cases with photo of Pilea cardierei and Tradescantia pallida andhttps://www.inaturalist.org/observations/6284871
It would be better if he had something that marked that remark as a problem to be solved, drawing the attention of whoever passed it.

The example you sent does appear to be casual grade to me, but I should have said that the community ID needs to be the lowest shared taxon. There are cases where there are so many "incorrect"/first photo IDs that it remains research grade even after you coarsify it. May need to tag someone in in those cases, or typically some of the initial identifiers withdraw or change their IDs.
I think some sort of alert to changes to DQA and photos would be clearer and preferable too. Right now no one is alerted to items checked in the DQA section or to changes to an observations photos or other data. So if a user fixes their inaccurate location, date, photos, etc, the user may not know to update that DQA section to allow it to be Needs ID or Research Grade, and the person who flagged it also doesn't get alerted. (this has been discussed a few times in other Google Group threads, though I am on too poor of internet to search for then and link them here)

The location for those observations would likely be incorrect.
I like James' idea of separating the photos in these observations into separate observations. Maybe just duplicate the whole observation and then "disappear" the photos that don't belong in each one, as charlie suggested. Seems like no photos would be lost to iNat that way, the photos would end up under the right taxon, and all of the observations would regain Research Grade potential. I would favor a warning to the observer before it's done, however.

It isn't even making observations on their behalf, because of the same previous reasons.

This has 4 different plants on the same observation https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/7445438

I still find many cases and lots of photos.
