The color? They should have been able to match any tint. I would imagine the other qualities like finish would have been close enough.

A patch is hard enough to hide without using a paint with a different finish. Yeah, it probably would have been fine. I’d probably be the only person to ever notice. It’s more the principal of them selling bulk paint at the end of its product life cycle with no legacy support. The guy at the counter offered to try and match it then floated just painting the entire room if I wasn’t ok with that. It just rubbed me the wrong way.
