You cannot update the quickfix list manually with normal editing
commands in the quickfix window. This is why "nomodifiable" is set in
this buffer by default. You should not have expected it to work simply
by overriding that option, it is set for a reason. If you had read the
help, you would see the following under :help quickfix-window:
> The window will contain a special buffer, with
> 'buftype' equal to "quickfix". Don't change this!
and lower down:

What you CAN do is use the quickfix functions to modify the quickfix
list in a script. See :help quickfix-functions for a list of these
functions.
The other thing you can do is always check the :help before asking
about it if something does not work the way you'd expect.
