OIDC Issuer value

We are preparing to add OIDC support to our IDP (4.2.1) and are unsure
about what identifier to use for OIDC Issuer.  The doc says

"...while it may be the same as one's SAML entityID, it often cannot be, as
SAML does not conflate identity and location in this fashion."

I am an OIDC newbie, and am not clear on what that means.  Maybe if it were
stated another way..?
Is there a reason why the OIDC Issuer should NOT be the same as our IDP
SAML Issuer (Entity ID)?  Would there be a conflict in the IDP between SAML
and OIDC if they're the same?
