Bone Black vs First Snowfall

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Bone Black belongs to the grey family and First Snowfall to the blue-grey family. First Snowfall (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Bone Black (LRV 47), a difference of 26 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Bone Black runs yellow while First Snowfall is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 16.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
