Oh Pistachio vs Picnic

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. Oh Pistachio (LRV 53) reflects noticeably more light than Picnic (LRV 47), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Oh Pistachio runs neutral while Picnic is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
