Its easier if we remove the edit button altogether
Nice thought 
But is it safe ? Because as per your thinking we are directly use link for edit the article.
@uthorat This can be easily solved if we add the edit option in every item in the respective drop down:
Taking this idea even further I will suggest a new layout for the buttons on the toolbar:
New, Commands, Help, Options
where Commands is a dropdown (on hover!) that reveals: Publish, Unpublished, Feature, Unfeature, Archive, Unarchive, Trash and batch
This way we ALWAYS get a small number of buttons that can easily render even in mobile
Also in the column Status of the list instead of two small buttons and a dropdown we can introduce again a dropdown with all the commands
