I am the only one who got lost? The trade data you refer to are just the input flows from other countries? See example in the MRIO table below.
Sector A, country X
Sector A, country Y
Sector B, Country Y
Product a, country X
Trade input
trade input
Product a, country Y
trade input
non-trade input
Product b, Country Y
trade input
non-trade input

A trade activity (does trade need to be flow-object specific? In the
future, does it need to be specific to transport mode?)
International trade activities, i.e. activities that move use of an
export to become an import supply, do need to be FlowObject specific.
Each such trade activity can have inputs of different transport modes,
insurance, and other trade facilitation activities, as well as outputs
of product losses. However, in Exiobase, these international trade
activities are (as far as I understand) integrated in the national data,
so to avoid double counting can be ignored. Of course, at some point in
time, someone will want to separate these out from the national tables,
but that is not required for now.
One minor technical question - do we take trade data from the supply
or use table? From my uninformed perspective, I would expect this data
to be the same in both tables, but I don't underestimate the ability
of data providers to surprise me anymore!
The trade data appear as imports in the Exiobase use table. Note that
this is different from the way it appears in national supply-use tables.
The above is according to the best of my knowledge. I assume Stefano can
