Galaxy vs Winter Snow

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Galaxy reads as grey, while Winter Snow reads as green-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Winter Snow (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Galaxy (LRV 6), a difference of 76 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Galaxy runs purple while Winter Snow is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 67.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
