RE: use-when in the xsl:inlcude

Actually, the XSLT 2.0 specification says that in the dynamic context for
use-when, the set of Available Documents is empty, which means that doc() or
document() ought to fail rather than calling the URIResolver. So it seems
you might be relying on a non-conformance in the Saxon implementation -
though I can't say it's one that I am motivated to remove.
