Description:
Introduces an optional DistilBERT-based sentiment analysis using HuggingFace pipeline
Controlled via use_distilbert flag (default: False) → no impact on existing behavior
Keeps VADER as primary sentiment source; DistilBERT acts as an additional signal
Appends distilbert_sentiment to output without modifying existing fields or logic
Lightweight integration with minimal code changes and zero disruption to current pipeline
Why:
Improves robustness of sentiment detection (especially for nuanced text)
Enables easy experimentation/ablation without affecting production flow
Impact:
Backward compatible
No changes to existing outputs unless explicitly enabled
Minimal overhead when disabled
