If I could make a small suggestion: I thought your paper was amazing, but, if you paired up with some experts in natural language processing, it would be amazing to see a follow up with domain-specific sentiment analysis to see how it progressed over time

That’s an excellent suggestion. I did initially have some slightly more advanced text analysis in the paper and reviewers had concerns, so they got dropped. The term ratio approach is very simple but has the advantage that the results easy to interpret & don’t depend on a model.
