California Breeze vs Sequoia

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. California Breeze reads as blue, while Sequoia reads as pink — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. California Breeze (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Sequoia (LRV 17), a difference of 46 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. California Breeze runs blue while Sequoia is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 48.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
