Patient White vs Venus Pink
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Patient White belongs to the pink-red family and Venus Pink to the pink family. Venus Pink (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Patient White (LRV 77), a difference of 3 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. At ΔE 2.7, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
