Apple Slice vs Citrine
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within yellow to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (83 vs 82), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. Both lean neutral, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 4.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
