With LRVs of 17 and 17, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 2.5 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
With LRVs of 18 and 17, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 3.8 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
A 3-point LRV gap (20 vs 17) makes Socialite the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 4.5 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 17 vs 16), so neither reads brighter in a room. The ΔE 4.8 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
With LRVs of 17 and 15, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 5.1 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.

Lilac Gray reads slightly lighter (LRV 25 vs 17), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 10.5 these are two genuinely different directions, not variations on a theme.
A 11-point LRV gap (28 vs 17) makes Pastel violet the marginally brighter of the two. A ΔE of 11.7 puts them firmly in different territory — a strong contrast if combined.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 17 vs 17), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 13.4 puts them firmly in different territory — a strong contrast if combined.
