Diving is a bit different from pulling someone's shirt or a push. According to the "Decisions of the International F.A. Board", incorporated into the Laws of the Game, "Any simulating action anywhere on the field, which is intended to deceive the referee, must be sanctioned as unsporting behaviour." In other words, diving is a mandatory yellow card. A push or pull is just a foul (unless done in a violent or reckless manner).

Plus, I've never heard of a player bragging about pushing during a post-game interview.

PS. Feno, as a ref, you need to protect all of the players, not just the "talented".
