This seems to be the gist of the response you've linked:
> mobile searches are the largest category of searches, and local searches are the largest category of searches within mobile. Instead our local search content is a combination of our own indexes in partnership with Apple, TripAdvisor, and others.
This suggests Bing isn't used for local searches, but it is still used for mobile and desktop searches that aren't local. If I am searching for a tech problem or how to tie a knot or recipes or the history of hair metal, I'm getting Bing results wrapped in DDG. Is that inaccurate? Is Bing still used for searches that aren't local searches?
