Cattail vs Jackson Tan

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Cattail reads as beige, while Jackson Tan reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Jackson Tan (LRV 28) reflects noticeably more light than Cattail (LRV 16), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 14.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
