Classic White vs Arcade White

Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 86 vs 86 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 1.5 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
