Jute Brown vs Wheat Penny
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Wheat Penny (LRV 18) reflects noticeably more light than Jute Brown (LRV 13), a difference of 5 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 7.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
