It's not that you're not supposed to edit these files directly, but it's
the lack of error checking that gives you this trouble.

I suggest you to use iptables/ip6tables to edit your current netfilter
rulesets, and use either
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/15-ip4tables save
or 
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/25-ip6tables save

to generate the contents of the rules' files.

I.e.

iptables -A INPUT -p 22 -j ACCEPT

/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/15-ip4tables save
