Ol' Blue Eyes vs Seaport Blue
Ol' Blue Eyes and Seaport Blue come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 14 vs 16 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Both share a blue character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 9.6 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
