desctable has a website, and a new version!
The new API is not yet complete, but has feature parity with the old one, and will be further developed towards 1.0. (have a look at the roadmap on the github repo) desctable has now full support for purrr::map-like formulas when defining statistics and tests, and a easier to manipulate internal format. There's a new website at https://desctable.github.io, the repo has moved to it's own org (https://github.com/desctable/desctable), and new documentation and vignettes have been written!

Working with columns names that are numbers (in this case, years)
I would just clean the names and work with those. Then there is no need to use backticks. Read about the function clean_names in the janitor vignette: https://github.com/sfirke/janitor
