Daylilly Yellow reads as beige-yellow, while Pure White reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 3-point LRV gap — 87 for Daylilly Yellow vs 84 for Pure White — means Daylilly Yellow will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 11.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
