I assume you are in Camera view while saving the views. As far as I can see in the code, the addon just stores and later restores the camera in this case, so it would be expected if both views were identical because they are sharing the same camera. Does that make sense?
I'm assuming this question is for me, I am in camera view while saving different positions, correct. The camera should be moved to a different location and rotation, saved in the add-on, and then have a prior position/rotation restored in the current view for the current camera, or vice versa.
Currently Blender already has a means of switching between different cameras, so I would not expect the need to setup or duplicate cameras manually for each view, otherwise there really is no purpose to the add-on. The expected behavior here I believe should be to update the location and rotation for the selected camera based on the data that is being stored (one would assume for that camera) when clicking on "Save Current".

"Set Update the view 3D according to this view" does not workto Stored Views: Viewport camera is merely reset instead of actually restoring the old viewChanged status from 'Needs Triage' to: 'Needs Developer To Reproduce'
Since the add-on explicitly implements that logic, it is probably not a bug. But I will tag the developers in case they consider it an unintentionally bad behavior as you say.
