Windmill Lane vs Marine
Where Windmill Lane belongs to Little Greene's range, Marine is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both green-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-grey to land. Marine (LRV 36) reflects noticeably more light than Windmill Lane (LRV 31), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Windmill Lane runs green while Marine is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
