Are you grumpy today?
That's not set in stone or else you'd see alot more offensive PI called.
A defensive player and offensive player are certainly not equal after 5 yards. The offensive player always has more leeway, he can push somewhat. There's no illegal contact for offensive players for example. It's subject to the interpretation of the ref.

Yes, I'm always grumpy.
