Bistro Blue vs Light Daffodil

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Bistro Blue reads as blue, while Light Daffodil reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Light Daffodil (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Bistro Blue (LRV 13), a difference of 69 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Bistro Blue runs blue while Light Daffodil is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 77.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
