How do you add comments and descriptions into objects' fields in an existing data model WITHOUT manually edit the data model's JSON file?
Can you add/change the comments/descriptions in the objects' fields through the Splunk GUI interface? if you do, please tell me how you do it.
The splunk help page states that the only way to add/change the comments and descriptions into objects' fields in an existing data model is to modify the data model's json file.

Optional fields

objects.comment.description
Syntax: $.objects[*].comment.description
Description:: The description of the data model.

object.fields.comment.description
Syntax: $.object[].fields[].comment.description:
Description:: The description of the data model field.

object.fields.comment.expected_values
Syntax: $.object[].fields[].comment.expected_values:
Description:: It defines the expected value(s) of the data model field. Splunk add-on builder verifies the expect value(s) when user validates the add-on.
