Caponata vs Mystic Lake
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Caponata reads as pink, while Mystic Lake reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Mystic Lake (LRV 33) reflects noticeably more light than Caponata (LRV 6), a difference of 27 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Caponata runs red while Mystic Lake is decidedly green and blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 44.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
