Dried Basil vs Texas Sage

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Dried Basil reads as beige-greige, while Texas Sage reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Dried Basil (LRV 39) reflects noticeably more light than Texas Sage (LRV 34), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 3.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
