SYSML17 — View is not a Viewpoint

The View conform Viewpoint relationship is shown as a Generalization. This then states that a View is a Viewpoint which is incorrect. A Viewpoint in ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010 terms is a specification against which a View is prepared and interpreted.

I suspect that this is another example of a long held error where View was described as an instance of a Viewpoint. It isn’t. This has never been true in the international standard.
