Research direction

The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing BERTopic's existing hierarchical clustering and topic-generation documentation or implementation, then determine whether splitting a topic into subtopics is an intended feature. Done would require an agreed design and verified support for producing subcategories such as football and baseball from a parent topic.
