It's not clear that provide claim is any different than issue claim. "It MUST be possible for any entity to issue a verifiable credential."
To the editors' reading, issuance is clearly an action that happens under the issuer's authority. The issuing entity gets to issue; there is nothing implying that they lose the ability to decide when to issue what to whom.
Requirement: issuers MUST be able to (sovereignly, autonomously) determine what kinds of claims they will issue to what holders, under what conditions this is done, and specify constraints regarding the contents of the claims they issue to such holders.
