bbox is an array of [x, y, x, y]. proximity is an object of {longitude, latitude}.

Research direction

Start by reviewing how the geocoder accepts and handles the bbox array and proximity object. Compare the proposed coordinate forms, [x, y, x, y] and [x, y], and determine a consistent API shape and compatibility expectations. Done means the coordinate inputs have an agreed, documented behavior.
