Bone Black vs Cornwallis Red

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Bone Black belongs to the grey family and Cornwallis Red to the pink-red family. Bone Black (LRV 47) reflects noticeably more light than Cornwallis Red (LRV 15), a difference of 32 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Bone Black runs yellow while Cornwallis Red is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 62.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
