Indigo vs Pewter

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Indigo reads as blue, while Pewter reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Indigo (LRV 57) reflects noticeably more light than Pewter (LRV 34), a difference of 23 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 21.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
