Long text line break not showing as a control character through API

Hi

We have made use of many long text questions and ask our customers to use the shift + enter option to break up the answers. We pull the data through the responses API. All that comes through is a text block with no control character that we could use to break the data up by line and store it as such in the DB.

This seems very strange, as it defeats the purpose of doing a line break in the typeform if it does not come through in the responses. Any help would be appreciated to understand if this is just the case or we are doing something wrong.
