Lotus Petal vs Malted Milk

Both from PPG's palette. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Lotus Petal (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Malted Milk (LRV 71), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
