How is it different from include? Just less files from my perspective

The "inline partials" feature is neat, means you can use and define a partial at the same time.

The way you can render just a named partial from both the render() shortcut and the include tag is nice too:

		Yeah, but I was doing the same thing 10 years ago with include mixed with extends and blocks. I can just include a file inside a template or render it directly.

you're kinda right, {% partial ... %} vs {% include ... %} is not a big difference, but my mind was vaguely thinking that "includes" have often been seen as large templates, whereas partial have been after the component era with the idea of making small blocks. (my 2 cents)
