Would Rallypoint benefit or suffer from being easier to search via DuckDuckGo !bang search function?

The "!bang" feature would allow someone to search the RP Answers section from Duck Duck Go by typing "!rallypoint What is Crapple?" or similar and get similar results.
DuckDuckGo is a search engine, similar to Google, but does not track or store your PII or data, unlike Google.
I figured I'd let RP and staff weigh in before taking initiative because of security and privacy. If RP doesn't like it, I'll just go back to working on other instant answers.

Duck isn't very popular, but I added the !rallypoint ability there for good measure!

Are you speaking based on some analytics you get for the domain or compared to another search engine? I'm curious.

Speaking based on actual usage data:

Duck is never even mentioned on any type of marketshare report that I've seen...

I am a new fan and user of DuckDuckGo. Why not make it searchable? It's no worse of a source for answers than Wikipedia. It's opinion based from the people who know the military best. It's current and prior members.
