Daisy (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Iron Ore (LRV 6), a difference of 62 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Daisy runs warm while Iron Ore is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 92.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
