contents The capability to quantitatively distinguish quantum states is of great importance for a variety of tasks, and has recently played an important role in the study of quantum reduced dynamics and their characterization in terms of memory effects. A crucial property of quantum distinguishability quantifiers considered in the latter framework is the contractivity under the action of completely positive trace-preserving maps. We show that this requirement warrants that the pairs on which these quantifiers attain their maximal value are pairs of orthogonal, and in this sense classical, states.
