When it doesn't make sense / where caution should be applied in interpreting extracted sentiment
Sentiment analysis results add more value when people are asked about something in general. For example, if the question is "What was your best experience about ...?", responses are likely to be all positive. Whereas when the question is "What feedback can you provide about ...?", responses are expected to be both positive and negative. Hence, more value in sentiment analysis.
Whether scores can be used quantitatively
Yes! Sentiment scores are numeric values between -1 an 1, with -1 representing pure negative and 1 pure positive. Under setting, you can specify the range for neutral.
