Edge Cases
- Private account: Returns profile metadata but no followers/following.
- No public email: publicEmail field absent — normal for personal accounts.
- Large follower list: Set maxItems limit to avoid excessive cost.
- Account not found: Returns empty result. Check handle spelling.
- Keyword returns many: Use maxItems to cap results.
