Blue Veil vs Brittany Blue
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. Blue Veil (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Brittany Blue (LRV 61), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 6.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
