OpenAPI tool will WARN a lot if Operation IDs overlap. Generated code/html may also look odd in case of overlaps.
All-in-all, I think the best practice is to define unique Operation IDs up front. For Iceberg REST API, the yaml file is the API definition, so it should not be a problem to ensure that Operation IDs are unique, I guess. Cheers, Dmitri.
