Proposed resolution:

This wording is relative to N4981.

Modify [range.iota.overview] as indicated:

-1- iota_view generates a sequence of elements by repeatedly incrementing an initial value.
-2- The name views::iota denotes a customization point object ([customization.point.object]). Given subexpressions E and F, the expressions views::iota(E) and views::iota(E, F) are expression-equivalent to iota_view<decay_t<decltype((E))>>(E) and iota_view(E, F), respectively.

views::iota(E) literally means incrementing element E endlessly, but views::iota(views::iota(0)) is currently well-formed due to CTAD, rejecting such unreasonable spelling seems therefore reasonable.
