We can't allow the editing of spigot.yml as it has some values in it that shouldn't be changed by users
e.g. restart script
e.g. restart script
Just set the value to default when the server started or reloaded, there isn't plugin that can cancel the message of finish reload or maybe force a plugin that sets the value in spigot.yml when enabled and disabled.
that can cancel the message of finish reload
It's not recommended to reload in general, restart instead.

Ok, so why you don't give a option to edit the spigot.yml if you can just set value when reloaded or restarted?
What about a separate window like server.properties in the Settings section? You didn't authorize everything there either. Why not allow secure settings here?
The post above are so obvious, read it

Good idea!
There are options that players do not allow to modify
Most of the people don't know anything about the options included on spigot.yml, they may ruin or lag their server or without knowing how to fix it.

Reset button to default settings;
Short description of each parameter;
Recommended value for each parameter;
Individual change limit for each parameter that either cannot be exceeded because the value is too dangerous or can be confirmed (Confirmation that you know what you are doing).
The server can also be compromised with bukkit.yml and paper.yml, but this is not a reason to ban them.

So add an advanced button on the settings menu.
But still, that will not gonna happen, maybe in the future no matter what you want it to to be added. There is Options menu for you guys to modify, what else do you want to modify. Plus, most of the example in the first post, you can just do /gamerule instead.

As Amgelo563 just said, player can ruin it without knowing how to fix, even small or high value, it still affect the experience of the gameplay.

People don't really know what they're doing when they do that, even a confirmation won't stop them. We still receive reports of "why my settings don't save when I reinstall" or "why my server was deleted when I downgraded/changed software", yes, even with the big confirmation screen they seem to ignore it, so a confirmation is not really an option.

Aternos is mostly used by really young people, an "advanced" button would just seem "cool" from them and not stop them from actually changing really risky options.

Maybe you can add a reset button and advanced button.

According to statistics, Aternos has 600k players every day. How many of them ask stupid questions a day? 10? 50? 100?
Is that a lot compared to the majority of users?
Also, I don't know how you can hurt your server with spigot.yml (cut by functionality). Yes, you can greatly increase the rendering of chunks (You can limit it), you can increase the rendering of Entities (You can also limit it, like all other features). But what will it do? Maybe the server will not be able to start up due to the load. Is it a strong problem? It will pass if you reset this file.
Against the background of problems removing the whole server due to reinstalling the software, I think it's a trifle.
I'm sure it will be possible some day, but not for now.
We have so many things on our list and the number of users who benefit from that / even wanted that feature is rather low.
