So is it fair to say that pushing an obstructing fielder out of the way is legal as long as we do not judge the push to be violent or unsportsmanlike?

And what if the push prevents the obstructing fielder from catching the throw?
If it was under the premise of the previous sentence, the fielder is SOL.
