I understand that this issue must be an upstream one, but it is visually weird.
I remember some review in the past mention this characteristic, so I looked for and found: that was for Mageia 6 (http://linuxblog.darkduck.com/2017/08/mageia-6-is-it-rise-of-phoenix.html) :

"...
The right part of the panel includes the notification area with clocks, volume, Bluetooth and network managers, USB devices list, clipboard monitor and other usual suspects. There are also two tiny buttons to lock the screen and shut down the computer. They are really too tiny to consider them useful.
... "

TIA.

Hi, thanks reporting this.

I do see the same with default Plasma panel's size. We provide a panel's size at 36 while upstream recommends 46 and theses 2 icons are provided by default by upstream Plasma devs.

We should fix this.
