Black Swan vs Raisin

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (4 vs 3), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. Black Swan runs neutral while Raisin is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 7.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
