This is an [EMAIL PROTECTED] issue: The Setup page is provided by AMP (now called freePBX, btw), but the Maintenance page is NOT. So, the [EMAIL PROTECTED] system allows you to change configuration files built by AMP, which is where the confusion comes in.

If you install Asterisk and AMP/freePBX manually, there is no maintenance tab, so there is less opportunity for you to overwrite the pre-baked configuration files. :)

The rules are fairly straightforward though: Anything *_additional.conf is written by AMP/freePBX and should not be touched. Anything *_custom.conf is never touched by AMP and can be manually edited. Anything *.conf is only overwritten on upgrades of AMP, so you should take care if you edit those files.
