Stout or Winding Cisticola? Yesterday in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia (1 Viewer)

I'm having a little trouble with these cisticolas. By far, the most common one I see here in Addis Ababa is the Winding (Ethiopian), and although I know that streaking on the crown is found in Winding, for some reason I thought the streaking seemed more Stout-like. I also thought I heard a Stout in the area. Unfortunately, these two birds (1-3 is same bird, 4 is most likely another) were quiet the whole time I observed them.

What do you think?
