Onion sensitivity seems to vary from person to person.  Could this helper be
better used elsewhere?  I have found soaking onions in cold water right
after peeling helps a great deal.  Some cooks find cutting the onions in a
large pot or sink where they can be held under water prefferable to wearing
face gear.

The onions are held underwater not the cooks.
