Is there any way to remove the Add to Home Screen button from the toolbar in Firefox for Android?

I don't know who is adding shortcuts their device's home screen on a daily basis, but a such rarely used feature shouldn't be taking up so much real estate on such a small screen. It makes the UI look cluttered, it makes the URL bar a lot smaller, it's annoying if you accidentally press it, and it adds no value. If I want to add a page to my home screen, I know how to use the menus to do that.
