Description
Hi, I recently re-ran a notebook for `zeroshot_topic_list` and got the `IndexError: list index our of range`
I fixed this by downgrading to 0.16.0
Full stacktrace:
```

Research direction
Start in _bertopic.py at fit_transform and _combine_zeroshot_topics, using the reported zeroshot_topic_list notebook configuration to reproduce the failure. Confirm that fitting under 0.16.1 completes without the IndexError and that the returned topics and probabilities remain available.
