Yeah, that's probably a better way to put it than blend vs fade. Initially it might be about the same, but over longer periods of time, the blue will likely have a better timeless patina vs the green might look old vs seem like it has a timeless patina. I feel like I've seen older cabins/buildings in green that didn't look so great, but the ones in dark blue seemed to look a bit better for longer.
But perhaps what also confounds me is that I know light can make huge differences in colors. This site I stumbled upon coincidentally shows a lot of what my thoughts are:

The original pre-painted color pic is the color I'd be concerned that the green would fade into, an olive grey color which I wouldn't like as much as a faded navy blue grey color. But brand new dark green paint, the pics range from dark green to almost that blue hue Corsi is trying to decide on.
It's Corsi's decision in the end, but IMO, using renderings that have been color corrected isn't the I'd use to determine the color decision, personally. It'd be best if a sample could be obtained and then pics taken of it in direct sun, shade, dusk, over cast etc.
Based on the pics and links, there's already evidence that the colors seem to vary quite a bit depending on the lighting. Just painted walls indoors in my own home and I've noticed a lot of jaw dropping variation based on 2700K vs 4000K lighting. Differences in those light bulb colors can range between "I like the color" vs "Eww gross, wtf."
