Dark Purple vs Mountainview

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Dark Purple reads as pink-purple, while Mountainview reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Mountainview (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Dark Purple (LRV 6), a difference of 68 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Dark Purple runs red while Mountainview is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 70.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
