I think you can use mayo instead of eggs to stick breadcrumbs, I’ve never tried it for calamari though. I reckon it would be fine.

ooh that is a trick I haven't heard of!

You can use plain yogurt too.

I've used plain milk for breading chicken breast before. The crumbs didn't stick quite as well, and it came out a lighter consistency, but it was fine. I think I've heard of people using a mix of vegetable oil, milk, and water as well which supposedly works ok.

I also ate a brownie that had the egg substituted for banana. Apparently that's a thing. The banana was a little overwhelming, but it did work

While I like eating bananas I hate bananas used as an ingredient in anything unless it’s banana cake.

The banana taste is always overwhelming when it’s used as an ingredient and it’s yucky.
