Pretty sure that is there intentionally otherwise likes is too far from the heart with “default” button spacing. Might be another way to express it in CSS.

Without negative right margin
It is pretty negligible, and the description of Likes next to the number signifies its relation.
Yeah the negative margin is intentional. But it could possibly be expressed as a margin override instead, etc.
