Blurb trade books paper comparison - "Economy, Color" and "Standard, Color"

This video shows two test prints of a Blurb "trade" book - "Economy, Color" and "Standard, Color" . everything else is the same about these books.

the 2 types of paper— "Economy, Color" and "Standard, Color"— are the same weight. And the 2 books I have are the same weight. Bottom line is that they look identical to me. I asked if it is possible they were printed on the same paper by accident? I will update here if they get back to me.

Good news is that it looks great!
