Now I Question why this should be better than wood? While trees grow fine in nature without human presence, the Mushrooms breeding has to be closely monitored and energy has to be invested into nutrients and temperature regulation. Maybe wood and Mushrooms could be combined but I do not see this completely remove the wood use case.

If I had to guess the answer would be time and land usage. A single humidity and temperature controlled facility could likely produce huge amounts of densely packed mycelial wood substitute compared to a huge forestry area that takes many years.
