Ramie vs Windsor Greige
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Ramie reads as beige, while Windsor Greige reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Ramie (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Windsor Greige (LRV 47), a difference of 5 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 3.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
