Cows and other ruminates get a lot of nutrition from Celulose. We don’t, which is why we eat meat.

Mark, How do you feel about the fact that raw vegetables pass through the body mostly undigested due to the fact that humans lack an enzyme to break down cellulose?

The reason not to eat grains includes their containing phytates, gluten and lectins, all of which pose health considerations beyond just the carbs. Bananas are simply a decent source of carbs for those looking to add a few extra grams here or there.

If you are looking to cut carbs by cutting fruit, you would probably want to cut the bananas out because of their glycemic load…and have, say, berries instead.
