From reading the docs it looks like there are ( or will be soon ) two distinct ways for API endpoint to consume the prompt:

1. Old one when all inputs are just concatenated into one string (Vulnerable to prompt injection)

2. Inputs supplied separately as a JSON (?) array, so special tokens can be properly encoded, maybe user input stripped of newlines (potentially preventing prompt injection).

I guess when Microsoft were rushing Bing features and faced with a dilemma to do by the rules or by tomorrow they chose the latter.
