Bird of Paradise vs RAL 460-3
Where Bird of Paradise belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 460-3 is a RAL Effect color. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. Bird of Paradise (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 460-3 (LRV 25), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
