If I am wrong about that, we could include the full song verbatim.
Using an \include is a great way to simplify the example, it's just that
the file ("old-hundredth-example.ly <http://old-hundredth-example.ly>")
doesn't seem to exist in my LilyPond install. (I was testing everything
under 2.25.19.) Is it possible that the file somehow just wasn't bundled
with 2.25.19?
Distributing the file with LilyPond was not intended. I don't think it
would make sense either.

I'm not sure how to satisfy this desire without bloating LilyPond or the
Notation Reference. Do we have techniques for linking from the NR to
supplementary material?
