Night Out vs Pale Pink

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Night Out reads as grey, while Pale Pink reads as beige-pink — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pale Pink (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Night Out (LRV 14), a difference of 66 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Night Out runs neutral while Pale Pink is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 47.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
