Remove Lock Icon from Acrobat DC Comments

In Adobe Acrobat DC Comments, the Lock icon adds unnecessary space to the already inefficient spacing (even without the lock, for some reason a lot of extra spacing was added).  Is there a way to compress the spacing and/or remove the lock icon, which was never shown in previous versions of Acrobat?  If not, the result of our company switching to acrobat DC is a reduction in productivity.
