Brindle vs White Down

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Brindle belongs to the pink family and White Down to the beige-white family. White Down (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Brindle (LRV 15), a difference of 62 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Brindle runs warm while White Down is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 51.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
