You didn't miss anything Terry. The ESR should be reduced
somewhere less than half of a single stub, and it could be
as much as 1/4 the resistance of a single stub.
You not only have the resistances in parallel (making it
half the ESR and twice the Q), the "conductor length" of
each resistor is also half.
I don't know how paralleling two stubs came out to be the
same, but that conclusion is wrong for certain.
The problems with coaxial capacitors really show up when the
stub passes high current, especially with high values of
capacitance.
