Ash vs Shoji White
Ash is a PPG color while Shoji White comes from Sherwin-Williams. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. With LRVs of 73 and 74, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 1.6, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
