They take way longer to soften than onions take to go translucent.
But also, onions can be overcooked. They can dissolve into mush. Meantime, mushrooms being a fungus and not a plant, is made of chitin. It’s basically indestructible, so they can hold out a lot longer.
Mushrooms first.

I also do mushrooms first, but my understanding is that it’s very hard to overcook onions. It takes like 45 minutes just to properly caramelize them
