I agree. I know clinicians and evaluators aren't the biggest fan of this call in general (and especially on free throws), but a good hard shove is easy to see and deserves a whistle. If it's more marginal, maybe wait to see if the shot goes in or it affects the rebound, but admittedly this can sometimes result in an exceptionally delayed whistle.

HokiePaul is right, good call selection here, especially early, is a useful tool for cleaning up garbage early.
