Cadmium Yellow Light and Cadmium Yellow Middle Palettes

All colors on these boards are nice.  Frankly, I don’t  see much difference here except the cadmium yellow middle results in darker versions of all of the same approximate colors  across-the-board.  Perhaps the colors are a little brighter with the lighter toned paint color. However, they are even brighter and very similar with cadmium lemon.  

I don’t see major differences that would justify including three separate cadmium yellows on my palette.  One of the three cadmium yellows will have to go. At this point, I’m thinking of dropping the yellow light in favor of the Lemon and middle versions of this intense yellow.  I will, however, look at the remainder of the mixes and then make a decision.
