Bachelor Blue vs Eagle Rock

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Bachelor Blue reads as blue-grey, while Eagle Rock reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (24 vs 24), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. Bachelor Blue runs blue while Eagle Rock is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 14.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
