P: New smallest swatch size is too large, offer smaller size

After Photoshop CC 2015.1 update the size of swatches are super huge and fills a large portion of the screen (while viewing all of them...which i do) at the minimum size.
Is this intentional?
Is there a way to get smaller, manageable swatch sizes again?

Yeah this was only in a recent update. If you guys want to do small, medium, large, then cool. There's no reason someone might not want the bigger one. Or, better yet, give us a slider for these things. yes, I understand this might be a slightly bigger deal than I'm making it sound like, but frankly it'd be really nice with the range of setups and screens out there to not be locked into a narrow set of options for things like this.

I can't Believe Adobe hasn't not addressed this at all! ...at least they could tell us it's not a bug it's a feature (terrible feature that is)

Would love to see this update made - the new "small" being made a "medium" setting, and with the old swatch size as the new "small". Causing some maddening problems with screen layout and work habits.

the new larger size for the smallest swatch setting is ruining my life.  a little dramatic lol but why would you make them so big they take up half my display now!

So I guess I was just lucky that for some reason the initial install of PS on a new computer was CC 2015 and not CC 2015.1?
(Which I've since rolled back to for a number of other frustrating reasons)
