Description

Current Monarch work would benefit from having semsimian return an empty object (or something in the expected form, at least) as a result for termset similarity rather than a NotImplementedError.
In practice this will be identical to the result returned from the stock termset similarity comparison, since it's using the same data model, and in the slightly longer term we'll have a complete set of similarity methods implemented anyway.

Research direction

Start by locating the semsimian termset similarity entry point and compare its result shape with the stock termset similarity comparison. Confirm the expected empty similarity object or equivalent data model, then verify that semsimian no longer raises NotImplementedError and returns that form for termset similarity.
