It may not be off in the same way, you're right. According to my knowledge,
it's a function of each samples colorants. If each samples is made with
different colorants AND it matches under a certain illuminant there is no
guarantee that it will match under a second iluminant. If each sample is
made with the same colorants then, by definition (please someone correct me
if I am wrong), they should still match under the new illuminant. It jas to
do with the spectral power distribution of each sample and the way it
physically intereact with the illuminant.
