Carys vs Citrus Punch
Where Carys belongs to Little Greene's range, Citrus Punch is a PPG color. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (79 vs 78), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. The ΔE 3.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
