Chicago Blues vs Woad
Where Chicago Blues belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Woad is a Little Greene color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Chicago Blues (LRV 18) reflects noticeably more light than Woad (LRV 12), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 9.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
