Modest White vs Pueblo
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Modest White belongs to the beige-greige family and Pueblo to the beige family. Modest White (LRV 73) reflects noticeably more light than Pueblo (LRV 66), a difference of 8 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 8.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
