Remove the "'APPROVE' performed by Xcode." message when approving a PR

I'm trying out the pull request review workflow in Xcode 15.4. Pressing the Approve button approves the pull request, but also adds a comment: "'APPROVE' performed by Xcode." I don't see anything in the settings that would allow me to remove or change this comment, am I missing something? Is there some obscure user defaults key for this comment or is it hardcoded?

As a side note, who thought this was a good idea? This reminds me of the "Sent from my iPhone" signature added by the Mail app. I understand that people working on Xcode are proud of their product, but this just comes off as tacky.

Given the usual lack of feedback from Apple on radars I don't have high hopes, but I have submitted a radar anyway: FB16022075
