The features are applied to each chunk in order in each step. The same placed features in the same step in two biomes cannot be in different orders. In each step, all feature IDs need to be ordered consistently across biomes. For example, in UNDERGROUND_ORES step of minecraft:plains, ore_dirt is before ore_gravel, so in other biomes' UNDERGROUND_ORES step, if there are ore_dirt and ore_gravel, ore_gravel cannot be after ore_dirt. The generation steps are also used in stucture features.
