- Handle both old and new sentence-transformers versions
- Gracefully fallback from advanced parameters to basic initialization
- Catch TypeError for model_kwargs/tokenizer_kwargs and use basic SentenceTransformer init
- Ensures compatibility across different CI environments and local setups
- Maintains optimization benefits where supported while ensuring broad compatibility
This resolves test failures in CI environments with older sentence-transformers versions.
