You're right that there's some inconsistency here. But I don't think it's
worth fixing given that the fix would introduce another inconsistency
(which you pointed out) and would also risk breaking backwards
compatibility. I think this ship has sailed.

=== This proposition is purely aesthetic ===
At this time, the __repr__ of the mapping views is showing the whole mapping:
>>> from collections.abc import ValuesView, KeysView, ItemsView
>>> d = {3: 'three', 4: 'four'}
>>> KeysView(d)
KeysView({3: 'three', 4: 'four'})
>>> ValuesView(d)
