Sensible Hue vs Coastal Jetty
Where Sensible Hue belongs to Sherwin-Williams's range, Coastal Jetty is a Valspar color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Sensible Hue (LRV 46) reflects noticeably more light than Coastal Jetty (LRV 40), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
