#'  \item{\code{naio_10_pyp1700}}{Symmetric input-output table at basic prices (product by product) (previous years prices)}
#'  \item{\code{naio_10_cp1750}}{Symmetric input-output table at basic prices (industry by industry)}
#'  \item{\code{naio_10_pyp1750}}{Symmetric input-output table at basic prices (industry by industry) (previous years prices)}
#'  \item{\code{naio_10_cp15}}{Supply table at basic prices incl. transformation into purchasers' prices}
#'  \item{\code{naio_10_cp16}}{Use table at purchasers' prices}
#'  \item{\code{naio_10_cp1610}}{Use table at basic prices}
#'  \item{\code{naio_10_pyp1610}}{Use table at basic prices (previous years prices) (naio_10_pyp1610)}

#' @param source See the available list of sources above in the Description.
#' Defaults to  \code{source = "naio_10_cp1700"}.
#' @return A nested data frame. Each input-output table is in a separate 
#' row of the nested output, where all the metadata are in columns, and the
#' actual, tidy, ordered input-output table is in the data \code{data} column.
