Isn't it Apple Maps that Duckduckgo uses? I've used DDG exclusively for search for at least ten years now, but I always end up out of the maps tab and into maps.google.co.uk. 'm' in address bar autosuggests it. I think that speaks for itself.

Apple Maps doesn't even offer (maybe it does on iOS?) public transport directions at all.

As a U.S. user of Apple Maps on iOS, I can say that they do indeed offer directions with a public transportation option.
