Glad Yellow vs Lemon Chiffon
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Glad Yellow reads as beige-yellow, while Lemon Chiffon reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Lemon Chiffon (LRV 79) reflects noticeably more light than Glad Yellow (LRV 76), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 6.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
