Grenadier Pond vs Lily Pad

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Grenadier Pond reads as green-grey, while Lily Pad reads as yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Lily Pad (LRV 51) reflects noticeably more light than Grenadier Pond (LRV 34), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 14.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
