I think this is the key to your post. When the dribbler hits the defender squarely in the center of his chest, as you say, it is an easy call. But what is sacred about the chest in this case? Shoulder to shoulder contact, which may send the defender spinning to the floor, rather that knocking him flat on his butt, still can easily be a PC foul.
