Orange Vermillion vs Tabasco
Both from PPG's palette. Both sit in the pink-red family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Tabasco (LRV 18) reflects noticeably more light than Orange Vermillion (LRV 15), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
