Quicksilver vs Whimsical White

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Quicksilver reads as green-white, while Whimsical White reads as white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Whimsical White (LRV 79) reflects noticeably more light than Quicksilver (LRV 75), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Quicksilver runs neutral while Whimsical White is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
