Grape Mist vs Pine Frost

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Grape Mist reads as grey, while Pine Frost reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pine Frost (LRV 65) reflects noticeably more light than Grape Mist (LRV 54), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean neutral, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 12.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
