Would a high-rise tower be compliant with credits requirements? From the upper floors one would only see the sky outside vision glazing. Would this be enough?

According to Nancy Clanton, Clanton + Associates (and one of the primary authors of the credit):
Yes, the sky is a wonderful view with clouds and birds. Also, long distance viewing is a benefit such as looking at city skyline.
View criteria may include unexpected movement (birds and clouds), distance (greater than 50'), natural scenes (clouds) and changing light (shadows, clouds).
