 Replying to [comment:3 gk]:
 > Okay, a quick glance seems to indicate that this is caused by us on
 mobile using the /html version of DuckDuckGo for some reason.

 I believe this came over from Orfox. I don't know the history of this
 decision, but I assumed it was for reducing javascript usage (for
 performance and privacy) -but I don't know if I'm right about this. I
 don't have a strong opinion on using `/html`. Or, people can petition DDG
 to support these search options on `/html`.
