#+INCLUDE: "file" replaces keyword with "file" contents. During subtree
export, replacement will happen if the keyword is located within the
subtree being exported.

#+SETUPFILE: "file" just reads Org keywords within "file". All Org
keywords are global, this one makes no exception.

In a nutshell, SETUPFILE should be used for Org set-up. INCLUDE is very
general and can be used to build complex documents. The fact that it
also copies Org keywords from "file" in the current buffer is merely
a side-effect.

#+LATEX_HEADER: is also global. Use :EXPORT_LATEX_HEADER: in property
drawer instead.

Off the top of my head, I think there's no direct way to do it. Though,
you can define a property :MY_SETUP: setupfile in the subtree and,
within `org-export-before-processing-hook', call a function:

  - commenting every fSETUPFILE keyword
  - adding #+SETUPFILE: setupfile at the beginning of the buffer.

It involves some (simple) elisp, though.

Thank you.
