Rustique vs Yellow Oxide

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Rustique belongs to the pink-red family and Yellow Oxide to the beige-yellow family. Yellow Oxide (LRV 30) reflects noticeably more light than Rustique (LRV 10), a difference of 21 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 43.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
