No they are three separate views.
Subject: No they are three separate views.
No they are 3 separate views.
It is the sentence structure that is confusing. Three individual views, but once the word views gets put into the sentence it becomes plural and without the word views it is regarded as singular. I don't necessarily agree, but I believe this is why the QA department and your manager keep changing your grammar.

Gee, ya think? You should see some of the stuff
I don't know who they got working there sometimes. So much conflicting stuff it's unreal. I call them on it every time though and send it to my super. It's hard enough without the conflicting feedback.
Example:
Dictator said HPI (for a heading), so I typed it HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS. I get QA feedback that says, "If the dictator dictates the header as HPI, type it in as HPI." So I'm like okey dokey.Next time I get HPI I do just that. Then I get a nasty note. NEVER, EVER abbreviate in the headers, always spell it out. I'm like geeesh!
One told me to type out 2:00 O'clock (for position, i.e., cornea).

When it is really prothrombin time, it makes NO sense to type pro time as 2 words....I really don't care what BOS says about this one particular issue. The word really is prothrombin time and MDs say protime....I give them protime. Just my take on it.
