Wales Green vs Pure White
Where Wales Green belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Pure White is a Sherwin-Williams color. Wales Green reads as green-yellow, while Pure White reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pure White (LRV 84) reflects noticeably more light than Wales Green (LRV 70), a difference of 14 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Wales Green runs yellow while Pure White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 31.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
