With LRVs of 86 and 84, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 0.3 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 87 vs 84), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 0.8 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
A 3-point LRV gap (84 vs 81) makes Opal the marginally brighter of the two. A ΔE of 1.2 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
With LRVs of 85 and 84, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 1.5 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 84 vs 83), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 1.8 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
A 4-point LRV gap (89 vs 84) makes Cleanroom white the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 3.0 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
