Feathery Lilac vs Supreme Green

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Feathery Lilac reads as white, while Supreme Green reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Feathery Lilac (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Supreme Green (LRV 69), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Feathery Lilac runs cool while Supreme Green is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 17.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
