Nice looking color you chose for your Compact Moon theme.

Oh that's not just for PM's theme - it's the overall theme for my Linux Desktop. The original theme was developed for Windows XP years ago, it's a Windows 7-alike theme, and I ported it to Linux soon after switching from Windows XP to Linux Mint back in 2019. I dread all grey themes that have no personality whatsoever.

Since you want those Refresh and Stop buttons to stay combine because you have a lack of space, there could be a way to gain more space, but this involves a compromise. You can get more space in your theme if you use the Customize Toolbar and move the Search, which is for Duck Duck Go, back into the Customize Toolbar.

The issue of combined Stop/Reload buttons has nothing to do with the Search item. Besides, I do need the Search widget as it does not only feature DuckDuckGo but more than 60 other engines, some of which being "engineered" in order to provide specific return results. And I really really do not want those Stop/Reload buttons separated, I got used to their combined function long ago and am quite happy with them as they are.

BTW, I think you said your have poor eyesight if I am not mistaken. [...] If you want the entire address to be all black lettering, you can have that by going into "about:config" [...]

Indeed you are not mistaken. But the address display is not an issue for me as it is. I could have disabled that setting long ago if I wanted to but I never felt the need to. Nevertheless, thank you for trying to help, I appreciate it.
