I don't understand this objection.  The relying party and the identity
provider are certainly different components with different functions, but
that doesn't imply that they can't be combined in the same software suite.
There's quite a lot of shared code between an SP and an IdP, so in some
sense that's easier than maintaining them as entirely separate projects.
