Actually, the original comments were indeed about match setup--namely putting a gear on the ground in contact with Robot A to make it easier for Robot B to run a 2/3-gear auton:

But regardless, no, to "push" an object does not inherently mean "control":
G27 BB. ...Examples of interaction with GEARS that are not “control” include, but are not limited to:
A. “bulldozing” (inadvertent contact with GEARS while in the path of the
ROBOT moving about the FIELD)
B. “deflecting” (being hit by a GEAR that bounces into or off of a
ROBOT).
Note that these definitions can and do change year to year (so there's no FRC standard), though this one has been somewhat perennial.
