IMO, it would be better than the current situation, but I wonder if
it makes sense to have a global default setting containing the
three files, but one which the user can customize; any :includes
parameters would augment the default.

That would satisfy the OP's requirements, but would also allow for
a shorter #+BEGIN_SRC line.
