Evening Sky vs New Born's Eyes

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Evening Sky reads as blue-grey, while New Born's Eyes reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. New Born's Eyes (LRV 41) reflects noticeably more light than Evening Sky (LRV 7), a difference of 34 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Evening Sky runs blue while New Born's Eyes is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 39.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
