Does NPOV or NOR allow analysis at all? Not in the slightest.
While it is meant to discourage pushing a viewpoint and putting uncited research up on Wikipedia, what would happen if someone were to analyze a point in an article?
In some cases it would seem to be pushing a point of view (even if the opposite POV is expressed) and sometimes would cause an edit war
In other cases it would be seen as original research (oh no! You can't say that without citing it!)
Maybe I'm just not understanding correctly what you mean by analyzing.
