Submarine Gray vs Whale Gray

Submarine Gray and Whale Gray come from the same Behr collection. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 13 for Whale Gray vs 9 for Submarine Gray — means Whale Gray will open up a space more effectively. Both share a blue character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 21.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
