You seem to misunderstand views. They don't group zones, they group
clients. A client can only be in one view: the first view that they
match.
Remember, views have more than zones in them, they also have options
like allow-recursion. What sense would it make to fall through to the
next matching view -- which set of options would you use?
If you want a zone to be in multiple views, list it in all of them.
