Honey fungus and wood chips

Honey fungus tends to breed around rotted wood, so why is it recommended
to
mulch around fruit trees with wood chippings? Why does that not encourage
honey fungus?
Just wondering!!
It attacks living wood, kills it, feeds of the sugars etc to send out
bootlaces to find more living wood which it enters through the ground. Wood
chips on the surface are not a problem.
