How about this? Or another related variety more likely.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

The one you identified has 4-5 leaves and red stems.
The one question has groups of three leaves and green stems.
It looks like a nettle but if what you stated that nettles grow like a bush then it "may" be different.

Cinquefoils may have from 3-7 leaves and there are many varieties so I still think this type/family of plant is most likely.........

Looks like Cinquefoil to me.
We have that in our yard, and it's a pain to get rid of.
The tap root can regrow if you don't get it all out.
It can and will grow long creeping vines and has flowers that look very much like a strawberry flower. They do produce small berry clusters that the birds do eat (and probablt spread as well).

Another plant you may want to steer clear of, if you don't know already, is Queen Ann's lace. Although it does produce a large "doily shaped" flower that attracts quite a few beneficial insects, the sap from the plant can be as toxic and reactive as poison ivy is.
