Bay Water vs Mizzle
Where Bay Water belongs to Behr's range, Mizzle is a Farrow & Ball color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Mizzle (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Bay Water (LRV 40), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Bay Water runs yellow while Mizzle is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
