From "Available on this device" to "Always available on this device"
"Always available on this device" means that you explicitly requested to sync permanently the item. Hence the system will never automatically delete the local copy.
"Available on this device" means that the item has been used locally and hence temporarily synced to the device. Hence the system will automatically delete the local copy when needed.
Makes sense?

This time (end of 2017) there is no difference between the two diffrent status (local available) and always available). The difference is only a different Attribute in NTFS.
I have written 2 articles in German language, (have had no time to translate it to english)
The 3 Status of OneDrive Files on Demand (Part1)
2nd part is going a little bit deeper into NTFS
so try it with google translation
