Low article count results in fewer than limit #15

E.g., 0.9 arts, 0.1 sports results in roughly 9 arts articles and 1 sports article, but if there's only 5 arts articles available, we end up showing 5 arts and 1 sports.

Unclear if we should fill up the remaining space with additional sports to overweight that interest or keep it proportional to the user's interests.

This is less of an issue when we have at least 10 articles for each interest.
