The pushing thing can be whatever depending on the drive gearbox just as any other drivetrain can be. 2 speed solves all problems you mentioned.
Apologies, I'm being quite unclear about these things right now.

By "Standard swerve", I'm not referring to anything particular about the Swerve itself. I'm referring more to a Swerve from a team who hasn't really mastered the Swerve yet (i.e. 16, 111, 118, etc.). Those teams have worked up good implementations to Swerve, and have made steps in overcoming the common short comings that go with it.

Again, I apologies. I'm being very unclear.
