Rich Cream vs New White
Where Rich Cream belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, New White is a Farrow & Ball color. Hue-wise, Rich Cream belongs to the beige family and New White to the beige-white family. New White (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Rich Cream (LRV 77), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Rich Cream runs red while New White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 3.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
