Partial analysis? Why?

I am really enjoying lichess, but I noticed something that is odd.

When I lose a game I will often do an Analysis Board.

I always turn on the Stockfish option.

Sometimes it provides a proper explanation i.e.

"Inaccuracy. Nd2 was best.
16.Nd2d517.Nxe4[...]"

Other times I just see Stockfish lines, but no analysis.

Why?

So my question, is how can I get that option turned on always. I find it very helpful.

You have to request computer analysis, it will shown at the bottom of the page.
Computer analysis is free, unlike Che**.com, and that's one of the reasons u WILL enjoy lichess.

I will try that.

I normally just do "analysis board", then a detailed explanation appears (occasionally) annotating the moves, even when I have not expressly asked it to do so.

Otherwise I hit the enable "Stockfish in local browser" button and all I get is basic lines of suggested moves, no English text on what moves are errors or not.

It seems inconsistent.
