It's an advantage on any site with more than about 2 pages!

Yes, but how many pages do you have? Let's say 50.

So every time you want to make a change to your menu, you have to make
the same change on *every* page *every* time, i.e. 50 times.

With an include(), you have to make the change *once*. That doesn't
sound like an advantage?
