In a nutshell, include treats the included stylesheet declarations as if
they were part of the module that includes them; while import incorporates
only those declarations from the imported module that aren't overridden in
the importing module. Use include to break up a large stylesheet into
manageable chunks, or to include common definitions that you don't want to
override; use import when you are writing a special-purpose stylesheet as a
refinement of a general-purpose one.
