Hello!
When i'm adding capability edit_dist_peer to roles two of them change their status to disable (schedule_rtsearch and dispatch_rest_to_indexers )
So i have config file like this:

dispatch_rest_to_indexers = disabled
edit_dist_peer = enabled
schedule_rtsearch = disabled

I can't find any information about this in documentation.

Why not use the UI to edit capabilities?

It was made through UI. This was alerted through monitoring .conf files.
