But they’re all in the sauce section? Mayo is not a sauce.

Teknikly it is- the original name in French is Sauce Mayonnaise - that is, sauce from the city/region of Les Mayons. Like Bearnaise sauce comes from Bearn. But opinions differ on this.

It's a condiment. Sauce is a condiment. Mayo is a condiment. They do belong together.

Vegemite is a condiment though

Yes. Correct that is why they are placed with all the other breakfast condiments.
