I don't think these are exceptions; 2.15 says,
Any debugging information entry representing a program entity that has
been given a name may have a DW_AT_name attribute, whose value is a
string representing the name as it appears in the source program.
The name of a class template specialization is the name of the template;
the template-id is a way of specifying a particular specialization, but
it isn't a name.
I do think it makes sense to change the sections you mention, but I'd
add the text as a clarifying note in italics rather than call it an
exception.
