Well yes, we cannot have everything. Just like it is taking a while for ``diagonal`` to transition to providing a view, this would be true for .H when the time comes. Naturally, this would be documented (that it may change to a view). Just as it is documented with ``diagonal``. But it is nevertheless forward looking in an obvious sense: it provides access to an extremely convenient and much more readable notation that will in any case eventually be available. Also, the current context is the matrices and masked arrays have this attribute, so this transitional issue already exists. Out of curiosity: do you use NumPy to work with complex arrays?
