Comet vs Fresh Olive

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Comet reads as blue-grey, while Fresh Olive reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Comet (LRV 36) reflects noticeably more light than Fresh Olive (LRV 30), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Comet runs blue while Fresh Olive is decidedly yellow, 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.
