…n-telemetry#5043) The compliance matrix entry "The name of the `View` can be specified" is misleading and redundant: 1. The spec defines `name` as a [stream configuration](./specification/metrics/sdk.md#stream-configuration) parameter that renames the output metric stream — **there is no concept of naming a View itself.** 2. This capability is already covered by the existing entry: "The `View` allows configuring the name, description, attributes keys and aggregation of the resulting metric stream." 3. The redundancy caused contradictory compliance statuses in some languages (e.g. Go marked `-` for the removed entry but `+` for the broader one). **Changes:** - Remove "The name of the `View` can be specified" from `spec-compliance-matrix/template.yaml` and all 12 language YAML files - Regenerate `spec-compliance-matrix.md` Co-authored-by: Alex Boten <223565+codeboten@users.noreply.github.com>
