Allows putting all the repeated stuff in one place (DRY!), so that if it needs changing it only needs to change once. Start the name of the included file with "@", and disallow the retrieval of files beginning with "@" (returning 404) so that it can't be downloaded, because it won't output anything meaningful. Why "@"? Because it's about the only ASCII punctuation character that doesn't mean anything special to most shells (bash), or programs, and is therefore easy to use as a filename on the command line. I almost went with "+", but it turns out that nvim treats arguments beginning with "+" as options. So "@" it is.
