Devon Cream vs Simply White

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Devon Cream reads as beige, while Simply White reads as beige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Simply White (LRV 90) reflects noticeably more light than Devon Cream (LRV 82), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Devon Cream runs warm while Simply White is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 10.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
