Toronto Blue vs Major Blue
Where Toronto Blue belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Major Blue is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Toronto Blue (LRV 32) reflects noticeably more light than Major Blue (LRV 29), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Toronto Blue runs blue while Major Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
