Not always. On rough ground pushing can allow you to pick a smoother
route. That can outweigh the better force vectors.

I wouldn't have thought it made much difference in that respect.
Arguably, pulling the barrow allows you to pick a route more easily
because you can see where you're going, rather than having the barrow
in your sight-line.
