Ceiling Bright White vs Serendipity
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both green-whites, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-white to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (83 vs 84), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. Ceiling Bright White runs neutral while Serendipity is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 1.4, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
