Technical question: Since DuckDuckGo uses Bing Ads, and Bing Ads have tracking that allow for remarketing, is there a point? advertise.bingads.microsoft.com/en-us/solutions/audience-targeting/universal-event-tracking

Ads on DDG don't use tracking / remarketing, they are only based on your search terms.

See https://duck.co/help/company/advertising-and-affiliates for details.

Also, you can simply disable Ads in Settings. https://duckduckgo.com/settings
